[PATCH v4 06/17] efi/libstub: Disable -mbranch-protection

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In preparation for adding --orphan-handling=warn to more architectures,
this disables -mbranch-protection, as EFI does not yet support it[1].
This was noticed due to it producing unwanted .note.gnu.property sections
(prefixed with .init due to the objcopy build step).
