commit 203498c11cdb4e0dbfc90aa8d60319032288925c Author: Juergen Gross <jgross@xxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Thu Apr 16 15:17:15 2020 +0200 Commit: Wei Liu <wl@xxxxxxx> CommitDate: Thu Apr 16 14:29:16 2020 +0100 mini-os: use -m elf_i386 for final linking Using the standard -m elf_x86_64 for 64-bit mini-os results in the first section (.text) to start only at offset 2MB in the binary file. Quoting Andrew Cooper on that topic: Specifically, 64bit emulation appears to include "align primary sections to 2M so your OS can make better use of superpages even when mmap()ing", with no way I can spot to override this in the linker file. Using -m elf_i386 avoids that problem without any visible disadvantage.
