Subject: [ 01/31] arch/tile: avoid generating .eh_frame information in modules
Date: Thu, 25 Oct 2012 17:04:08 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20121026000215.094713375@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20121026000214.941721299@linuxfoundation.org>
3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
commit 627072b06c362bbe7dc256f618aaa63351f0cfe6 upstream.
The tile tool chain uses the .eh_frame information for backtracing.
The vmlinux build drops any .eh_frame sections at link time, but when
present in kernel modules, it causes a module load failure due to the
presence of unsupported pc-relative relocations. When compiling to
use compiler feedback support, the compiler by default omits .eh_frame
information, so we don't see this problem. But when not using feedback,
we need to explicitly suppress the .eh_frame.
