Subject: [PATCH v2 2/8] x86: Remove .sdata from the vDSO linker script
Date: Fri, 12 Jun 2009 15:40:34 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1244814040-5810-3-git-send-email-ptesarik@suse.cz> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1244814040-5810-1-git-send-email-ptesarik@suse.cz>

There is no .sdata section on either i386 or x86_64.

The existence of this line probably dates back to the (long abandoned)
idea that x86_64 would have .sdata for "small" data and .data for large
data. However, the final ABI has .data for "normal" data and .ldata
for large data, so this line is no longer pertinent.
