[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [PATCH] Arm32: avoid .rodata to be marked as executable
This confuses disassemblers, at the very least. When this data still lived in .init.*, this probably didn't matter much, albeit the "#execinstr" would have been suspicious to me already then. But the latest with their movement to .rodata these attributes should have been dropped. Fixes: 9cbe093b7b84 ("xen/arm: link: Link proc_info_list in .rodata instead of .init.data") Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@xxxxxxxx> --- The PRINT() macro in head.S is another source of such confusion of code vs data. While in head.o there are mapping symbols guiding disassemblers, these mapping symbols are gone when looking at xen-syms. But I realize adr's reach is too limited to allow for a halfway reasonable approach of moving those strings (e.g. to, at least, have them all together). --- a/xen/arch/arm/arm32/proc-v7.S +++ b/xen/arch/arm/arm32/proc-v7.S @@ -29,7 +29,7 @@ brahma15mp_init: mcr CP32(r0, ACTLR) mov pc, lr - .section ".proc.info", #alloc, #execinstr + .section ".proc.info", #alloc .type __v7_ca15mp_proc_info, #object __v7_ca15mp_proc_info: .long 0x410FC0F0 /* Cortex-A15 */ @@ -38,7 +38,7 @@ __v7_ca15mp_proc_info: .long caxx_processor .size __v7_ca15mp_proc_info, . - __v7_ca15mp_proc_info - .section ".proc.info", #alloc, #execinstr + .section ".proc.info", #alloc .type __v7_ca7mp_proc_info, #object __v7_ca7mp_proc_info: .long 0x410FC070 /* Cortex-A7 */ @@ -47,7 +47,7 @@ __v7_ca7mp_proc_info: .long caxx_processor .size __v7_ca7mp_proc_info, . - __v7_ca7mp_proc_info - .section ".proc.info", #alloc, #execinstr + .section ".proc.info", #alloc .type __v7_brahma15mp_proc_info, #object __v7_brahma15mp_proc_info: .long 0x420F00F0 /* Broadcom Brahma-B15 */
