Everything here has been acked or reviewed by Sam Ravnborg. Please merge. This cross-architecture linker script cleanup project is in preparation for adding support for building the kernel with -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections, which is a prerequisite for Ksplice. -Tim Abbott Tim Abbott (13): Optimize the ordering of sections in RW_DATA_SECTION. m32r: make PAGE_SIZE available to assembly. m32r: Define THREAD_SIZE only once. m32r: Move GET_THREAD_INFO definition out of asm/thread_info.h. m32r: Remove unused .altinstructions and .exit.* code from linker script. m32r: Move the spi_stack_top and spu_stack_top into .init.data section. m32r: Cleanup linker script using new linker script macros. parisc: Clean up linker script using new linker script macros. parisc: Remove useless altinstructions code copied from x86. xtensa: Cleanup linker script using new linker script macros. um: Clean up linker script using standard macros. h8300: Cleanup linker script using new linker script macros. mn10300: Clean up linker script using higher-level macros. arch/h8300/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S | 25 ++------ arch/m32r/include/asm/page.h | 4 +- arch/m32r/include/asm/processor.h | 2 - arch/m32r/include/asm/thread_info.h | 15 +---- arch/m32r/kernel/entry.S | 7 ++ arch/m32r/kernel/head.S | 4 +- arch/m32r/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S | 78 +++----------------------- arch/mn10300/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S | 40 +------------ arch/parisc/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S | 104 +--------------------------------- arch/um/include/asm/common.lds.S | 29 ++-------- arch/um/kernel/dyn.lds.S | 9 +-- arch/um/kernel/uml.lds.S | 26 ++------- arch/xtensa/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S | 75 +++++-------------------- include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h | 4 +- 14 files changed, 68 insertions(+), 354 deletions(-) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
