[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [PATCH] Arm: avoid .init.data to be marked as executable
This confuses disassemblers, at the very least. Move
.altinstr_replacement to .init.text, dropping the redundant ALIGN().
Also, to have .altinstr_replacement have consistent attributes in the
object files, add "x" to the one instance where it was missing.

I'm uncertain whether having .altinstr_replacement inside or outside the
[_sinittext,_einittext) region is better; I simply followed what we have
on the x86 side right now.
