[PATCH v1 2/3] pc-bios/s390-ccw: Don't generate TEXTRELs
Posted by Marc Hartmayer 1 month, 3 weeks ago
From: Jens Remus <jremus@linux.ibm.com>

Commit 7cd50cbe4ca3 ("pc-bios/s390-ccw: Don't use __bss_start with the
"larl" instruction") introduced the address constant bss_start_literal
for __bss_start in the .text section, which introduced a relocation in
code (i.e. TEXTREL). The dedicated constant is required, as __bss_start
may not necessarily be aligned on a 2-byte boundary (see subject commit
for details).

Move the constant to the .data section to get rid of the relocation in
the .text section. Add the linker option -z text to prevent TEXTRELs to
get introduced in the future.

Note that the R_390_RELATIVE relocations are taken care of by function
glue() in include/hw/elf_ops.h.inc introduced by commit 5dce07e1cb67
("elf-loader: Provide the possibility to relocate s390 ELF files").
