[patch 2/3] IA64: alignment bug in ldscript

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

 



From: Kirill Korotaev <dev@xxxxxxxxxx>

Occasionally the FSYS_RETURN patch list can have an odd length, causing other
data structures to get out of alignment.  In OpenVZ it is odd and we get
misaligned kernel image, which does not boot.
