Date: Fri, 30 Mar 2007 20:21:46 -0700 From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@...p.org> To: Andi Kleen <ak@...e.de> CC: Andrew Morton <akpm@...ux-foundation.org>, "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@...ssion.com>, Linux Kernel Mailing List <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> Subject: [PATCH] Clean up ELF note generation Three cleanups: 1: ELF notes are never mapped, so there's no need to have any access flags in their phdr. 2: When generating them from asm, tell the assembler to use a SHT_NOTE section type. There doesn't seem to be a way to do this from C. 3: Use ANSI rather than traditional cpp behaviour to stringify the macro argument.
