Sorry, I should have looked it up. I'll just fix this, my earlier mistake, and collect Kee's reviewed by tag in a v2 sent directly to GKH. > > > Suggested-by: Jordan Rupprect <rupprecht@...gle.com> > > Signed-off-by: Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulniers@...gle.com> > > --- > > drivers/misc/lkdtm/Makefile | 3 +-- > > 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 2 deletions(-) > > > > diff --git a/drivers/misc/lkdtm/Makefile b/drivers/misc/lkdtm/Makefile > > index 951c984de61a..89dee2a9d88c 100644 > > --- a/drivers/misc/lkdtm/Makefile > > +++ b/drivers/misc/lkdtm/Makefile > > @@ -15,8 +15,7 @@ KCOV_INSTRUMENT_rodata.o := n > > > > OBJCOPYFLAGS := > > OBJCOPYFLAGS_rodata_objcopy.o := \ > > - --set-section-flags .text=alloc,readonly \ > > - --rename-section .text=.rodata > > + --rename-section .text=.rodata,alloc,readonly > > targets += rodata.o rodata_objcopy.o > > $(obj)/rodata_objcopy.o: $(obj)/rodata.o FORCE > > $(call if_changed,objcopy) > > -- > > 2.21.0.1020.gf2820cf01a-goog > > > > I ran this script to see if there was any change for GNU objcopy and it > looks like .rodata's type gets changed, is this intentional?

I doubt the code in question relies on NOBITS for this section. Kees, can you clarify? Jordan, do you know what the differences are between PROGBITS vs NOBITS? https://people.redhat.com/mpolacek/src/devconf2012.pdf seems to suggest NOBITS zero initializes data but I'm not sure that's what this code wants. > > ----------- > > #!/bin/bash > > TMP1=$(mktemp) > TMP2=$(mktemp) > > git checkout next-20190513 > > make -j$(nproc) ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- O=out mrproper allyesconfig drivers/misc/lkdtm/ > readelf -S out/drivers/misc/lkdtm/rodata_objcopy.o > ${TMP1} > > curl -LSs https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190513222109.110020-1-ndesaulniers@google.com/raw | git am -3 > > make -j$(nproc) ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- O=out mrproper allyesconfig drivers/misc/lkdtm/ > readelf -S out/drivers/misc/lkdtm/rodata_objcopy.o > ${TMP2} > > diff ${TMP1} ${TMP2} -- Thanks, ~Nick Desaulniers
