Subject: [PATCH v4 00/24] vdso: Reject absolute relocations during build
The compiler can emit absolute relocations in vDSO code,
which are invalid in vDSO code.
Detect them at compile-time.
libc elf.h is missing some of the relocation constants,
so make user of the kernels own UAPI headers instead.
Kbuild and Rust folks: This contains custom definitions of hostprog
bindgen and rust library commands.
These are currently only defined inside the subsystem directory.
Let me know if they should go into scripts/Makefile.host.
This will conflict with my SPARC64 generic vDSO patches [0].
If both end up being applied at the same time, please leave out commit
'vdso/vdsocheck: Drop the transitional kconfig option' from this series.
