Date: Wed, 17 Jun 2015 15:23:23 -0700 From: Kamal Mostafa <kamal@...onical.com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, stable@...r.kernel.org, kernel-team@...ts.ubuntu.com Cc: Anton Blanchard <anton@...ba.org>, Michael Ellerman <mpe@...erman.id.au>, Kamal Mostafa <kamal@...onical.com> Subject: [PATCH 3.19.y-ckt 098/146] powerpc: Align TOC to 256 bytes 3.19.8-ckt2 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Anton Blanchard <anton@...ba.org> commit 5e95235ccd5442d4a4fe11ec4eb99ba1b7959368 upstream. Recent toolchains force the TOC to be 256 byte aligned. We need to enforce this alignment in our linker script, otherwise pointers to our TOC variables (__toc_start, __prom_init_toc_start) could be incorrect. If they are bad, we die a few hundred instructions into boot.
