powerpc and parisc handle kernel .opd section as well:

arch/powerpc/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S:      .opd
arch/parisc/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S:       .opd

for modules, arch-s define mod_arch_specific struct.

parisc has .opd

(fdesc offset should be the start of .opd,
  fdesc_offset + sizeof(fdesc) * fdesc_count should be the .opd address range)

struct mod_arch_specific
{
         unsigned long got_offset, got_count, got_max;
         unsigned long fdesc_offset, fdesc_count, fdesc_max;
         struct {
                 unsigned long stub_offset;
                 unsigned int stub_entries;
                 } *section;
         int unwind_section;
         struct unwind_table *unwind;
};


ia64 has .opd

struct mod_arch_specific {
         struct elf64_shdr *core_plt;    /* core PLT section */
         struct elf64_shdr *init_plt;    /* init PLT section */
         struct elf64_shdr *got;         /* global offset table */
         struct elf64_shdr *opd;         /* official procedure descriptors */
         struct elf64_shdr *unwind;      /* unwind-table section */
         unsigned long gp;               /* global-pointer for module */

         void *core_unw_table;           /* core unwind-table cookie returned 
by unwinder */
         void *init_unw_table;           /* init unwind-table cookie returned 
by unwinder */
         unsigned int next_got_entry;    /* index of next available got entry */
};


powerpc does not keep track of .opd, need to add

struct mod_arch_specific {
#ifdef __powerpc64__
         unsigned int stubs_section;     /* Index of stubs section in module */
         unsigned int toc_section;       /* What section is the TOC? */
         bool toc_fixed;                 /* Have we fixed up .TOC.? */
#ifdef CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE
         unsigned long toc;
         unsigned long tramp;
#endif

#else /* powerpc64 */
         /* Indices of PLT sections within module. */
         unsigned int core_plt_section;
         unsigned int init_plt_section;
#ifdef CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE
         unsigned long tramp;
#endif
#endif /* powerpc64 */

         /* List of BUG addresses, source line numbers and filenames */
         struct list_head bug_list;
         struct bug_entry *bug_table;
         unsigned int num_bugs;
};


seems like we are looking at a solution here.

thoughts?

The basic concept of your proposal may work, and since it will avoid such
coding issues in the future I think it's probably the best solution.

Will you come up with a patch ? (I won't have time the next few days).
If yes,I'd be happy to test it on parisc.
