From: Alexander Egorenkov <egorenar@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Starting with gcc 11.3, the C compiler will generate PLT-relative function calls even if they are local and do not require it. Later on during linking, the linker will replace all PLT-relative calls to local functions with PC-relative ones. Unfortunately, the purgatory code of kexec/kdump is not being linked as a regular executable or shared library would have been, and therefore, all PLT-relative addresses remain in the generated purgatory object code unresolved. This in turn lets kexec-tools fail with "Unknown rela relocation: 0x14 0x73c0901c" for such relocation types. Furthermore, the clang C compiler has always behaved like described above and this commit should fix the purgatory code built with the latter. Because the purgatory code is no regular executable or shared library, contains only calls to local functions and has no PLT, all R_390_PLT32DBL relocation entries can be resolved just like a R_390_PC32DBL one. * https://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/ELF/zSeries/lzsabi0_zSeries/x1633.html#AEN1699 Relocation entries of purgatory code generated with gcc 11.3 ------------------------------------------------------------ $ readelf -r purgatory/purgatory.o Relocation section '.rela.text' at offset 0x6e8 contains 27 entries: Offset Info Type Sym.
