Hi, The orphan section warning patch had a minor issue with unhandled .text.save.restore last time I sent it. I went back and tidied up crtsavres a bit, so after these, I think we can enable orphan section warnings.
There is a further step we can take which is to enable --save-restore-funcs for module link, which means 64-bit does not need crtsavres at all. That option is only in binutils 2.25 though, so I'll send that later. Thanks, Nick Nicholas Piggin (4): powerpc/64: place sfpr section explicitly with the linker script powerpc/64: do not link crtsavres routines into vmlinux powerpc/64: do not create new section for save/restore functions powerpc: link warning for orphan sections arch/powerpc/Makefile | 1 + arch/powerpc/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S | 24 ++++++++++++++++++++++-- arch/powerpc/lib/Makefile | 8 ++++++-- arch/powerpc/lib/crtsavres.S | 6 ++---- include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h | 11 +++++++++++ 5 files changed, 42 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) -- 2.10.2
