Subject: [PATCH] x86/boot: explicitly place .eh_frame after .rodata
Date: Mon, 4 Nov 2019 11:03:38 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191104090339.20941-1-ilie.halip@gmail.com> (raw)
When using GCC as compiler and LLVM's lld as linker, linking
setup.elf fails:
LD arch/x86/boot/setup.elf
ld.lld: error: init sections too big!
This happens because ld.lld has different rules for placing
orphan sections (i.e. sections not mentioned in a linker script)
compared to ld.bfd.
Particularly, in this case, the merged .eh_frame section is
placed before __end_init, which triggers an assert in the script.
Explicitly place this section after .rodata, in accordance with
ld.bfd's behavior.
