The arm64 module PLT code allocates all PLT entries in a single core section, since the overhead of having a separate init PLT section is not justified by the small number of PLT entries usually required for init code. However, the core and init module regions are allocated independently, and there is a corner case where the core region may be allocated from the VMALLOC region if the dedicated module region is exhausted, but the init region, being much smaller, can still be allocated from the module region. This leads to relocation failures if the distance between those regions exceeds 128 MB. (In fact, this corner case is highly unlikely to occur on arm64, but the issue has been observed on ARM, whose module region is much smaller). So split the core and init PLT regions, and name the latter ".init.plt" so it gets allocated along with (and sufficiently close to) the .init sections that it serves. Also, given that init PLT entries may need to be emitted for branches that target the core module, modify the logic that disregards defined symbols to only disregard symbols that are defined in the same section as the relocated branch instruction. Since there may now be two PLT entries associated with each entry in the symbol table, we can no longer hijack the symbol::st_size fields to record the addresses of PLT entries as we emit them for zero-addend relocations. So instead, perform an explicit comparison to check for duplicate entries. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> |

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
