Subject: [PATCH v3 0/5] Linker script cleanup patches for x86
Date: Wed, 16 Sep 2009 16:44:25 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1253133870-25140-1-git-send-email-tabbott@ksplice.com> (raw)
This is an updated version of the patch series I sent on September 8
cleaning up the x86 architecture's linker scripts. The only change is
that it is rebased on top of Linus's current master.
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.
