There are no direct references to this section, so there's no need to form it. '.balign 0x1000' directive will work anyway. Moreover, this section was being placed in vmlinux differently depending on CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION: - with this option enabled, '.text.cps-vec' was being caught by '.text.[0-9a-zA-Z_]*' from include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h; - without this option, '.text.cps-vec' was being caught by discouraging '.text.*' from arch/mips/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S. '.text.*' should not be used in vmlinux linker scripts at all as it silently catches any orphan text sections. So, remove both '.section .text.cps-vec' and '.text.*' from cps-vec.S and vmlinux.lds.S respectively. As said, this does not affect related functions alignment: 80116000 T mips_cps_core_entry 80116028 t not_nmi 80116200 T excep_tlbfill 80116280 T excep_xtlbfill 80116300 T excep_cache 80116380 T excep_genex 80116400 T excep_intex 80116480 T excep_ejtag 80116490 T mips_cps_core_init Signed-off-by: Alexander Lobakin <alobakin@...me> --- arch/mips/kernel/cps-vec.S | 1 - arch/mips/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S | 1 - 2 files changed, 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/mips/kernel/cps-vec.S b/arch/mips/kernel/cps-vec.S index 4db7ff055c9f..975343240148 100644 --- a/arch/mips/kernel/cps-vec.S +++ b/arch/mips/kernel/cps-vec.S @@ -91,7 +91,6 @@ .set pop .endm -.section .text.cps-vec .balign 0x1000 LEAF(mips_cps_core_entry) diff --git a/arch/mips/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S b/arch/mips/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S index 83e27a181206..ae1d0b4bdd60 100644 --- a/arch/mips/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S +++ b/arch/mips/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S @@ -66,7 +66,6 @@ SECTIONS KPROBES_TEXT IRQENTRY_TEXT SOFTIRQENTRY_TEXT - *(.text.*) *(.fixup) *(.gnu.warning) } :text = 0 -- 2.30.0
