Subject: [driver-core-next] vmlinux.lds.h fix
Date: Wed, 16 Nov 2022 17:20:20 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221117002022.860237-1-jim.cromie@gmail.com> (raw)

hi Greg,

You recently applied to driver-core-next: 2 vmlinux.lds.h patches from
me.  The 2nd has a subtle error, placing the optional header KEEP in
with the data.

1st patch fixes it by dropping the extra KEEP, restoring basic behavior.

2nd redoes the HEADERD_SECTION idea with separate macros, so it cant
affect the basic case.  HEADERD_SECTION is not the name in code, maybe
it should be ?

Also, 2nd is NOT in real/purposeful use yet.

I should have stared at this patchset longer before sending.
sorry about that.
