Use a tool to check that the location of "fixed sections" are where we expected them to be, which catches cases the linker script can't (stubs being added to start of .text section), and which ends up being neater. Sample output: ERROR: start_text address is c000000000008100, should be c000000000008000 ERROR: see comments in arch/powerpc/tools/head_check.sh Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> [mpe: Fold in fix from Nick for 4.6 era toolchains] Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

# NOTE!

|
|
# If the build dies here, it's likely code in head_64.S/exception-64*.S or
|
|
# nearby, is branching to labels it can't reach directly, which results in the
|
|
# linker inserting branch stubs. This can move code around in ways that break
|
|
# the fixed section calculations (head-64.h). To debug this, disassemble the
|
|
# vmlinux and look for branch stubs (long_branch, plt_branch, etc.) in the
|
|
# fixed section region (0 - 0x8000ish). Check what code is calling those stubs,
|
|
# and perhaps change so a direct branch can reach.
|
|
#
|
|
# A ".linker_stub_catch" section is used to catch some stubs generated by
|
|
# early .text code, which tend to get placed at the start of the section.
|
|
# If there are too many such stubs, they can overflow this section. Expanding
|
|
# it may help (or reducing the number of stub branches).
|
|
#
|
|
# Linker stubs use the TOC pointer, so even if fixed section code could
|
|
# tolerate them being inserted into head code, they can't be allowed in low
|
|
# level entry code (boot, interrupt vectors, etc) until r2 is set up. This
|
|
# could cause the kernel to die in early boot.
|
|
|
|
# Turn this on if you want more debug output:
|
|
# set -x
