Subject: [PATCH RFC 04/14] sparc64: vdso: Link with -z noexecstack
Date: Thu, 24 Jul 2025 08:26:54 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250724-vdso-sparc64-generic-2-v1-4-e376a3bd24d1@linutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250724-vdso-sparc64-generic-2-v1-0-e376a3bd24d1@linutronix.de>
The vDSO stack does not need to be executable. Prevent the linker from
creating executable. For more background see commit ffcf9c5700e4 ("x86:
link vdso and boot with -z noexecstack --no-warn-rwx-segments").
Also prevent the following warning from the linker:
sparc64-linux-ld: warning: arch/sparc/vdso/vdso-note.o: missing .note.GNU-stack section implies executable stack
sparc64-linux-ld: NOTE: This behaviour is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of the linker
Suggested-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@kernel.org>

Fixes: 9a08862a5d2e ("vDSO for sparc")
