Merge patch series "riscv: vdso.lds.S: some improvement"
Jisheng Zhang <jszhang@kernel.org> says: This series renews one of my last year RFC patch[1], tries to improve the vdso layout a bit. patch1 removes useless symbols patch2 merges .data section of vdso into .rodata because they are readonly patch3 is the real renew patch, it removes hardcoded 0x800 .text start addr. But I rewrite the commit msg per Andrew's suggestions and move move .note, .eh_frame_hdr, and .eh_frame between .rodata and .text to keep the actual code well away from the non-instruction data. * b4-shazam-merge: riscv: vdso.lds.S: remove hardcoded 0x800 .text start addr riscv: vdso.lds.S: merge .data section into .rodata section riscv: vdso.lds.S: drop __alt_start and __alt_end symbols Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-riscv/20221123161805.1579-1-jszhang@kernel.org/ [1] Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230912072015.2424-1-jszhang@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Palmer Dabbelt <palmer@rivosinc.com>
