Subject: [PATCH] kallsyms: fix sparc gibberish
Date: Wed, 08 Sep 2004 13:30:50 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <413EFB7A.8000303@grupopie.com> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 464 bytes --]
This one liner fixes the bug of using ".word" to represent 16 bits
quantities, that made kallsyms produce gibberish on sparc.
Although it works on almost every platform except sparc, it should
really use ".short" or ".hword" to represent 16 bits on any platform.
Please apply,
