[PATCH 4.4 013/112] parisc: Fix kernel memory layout regarding position of __gp

Show all headers | View raw

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

commit f8850abb7ba68229838014b3409460e576751c6d upstream.

Architecturally we need to keep __gp below 0x1000000.

But because of ftrace and tracepoint support, the RO_DATA_SECTION now gets much
bigger than it was before. By moving the linkage tables before RO_DATA_SECTION
we can avoid that __gp gets positioned at a too high address.
