At least x86 has hard assumptions about function alignment always being respected -- see the most horrible games we play with CONFIG_CALL_THUNKS. Or is this only text parts and not actual functions in these sections? In which case we can probably get away with not respecting the function call alignment, although we should probably still respect the branch alignment -- but I forgot if we made use of that :/ > > > > > + *(.text.hot .text.hot.*) \ > > > + *(TEXT_MAIN .text.fixup) \ > > > + NOINSTR_TEXT \ > > > + *(.ref.text) \ > > > + MEM_KEEP(init.text*) > > > +#else > > > #define TEXT_TEXT \ > > > ALIGN_FUNCTION(); \ > > > *(.text.hot .text.hot.*) \ > > > @@ -594,7 +606,8 @@ > > > NOINSTR_TEXT \ > > > *(.ref.text) \ > > > *(.text.asan.* .text.tsan.*) \ > > > - MEM_KEEP(init.text*) \ > > > + MEM_KEEP(init.text*) > > > +#endif > > > > > > > > > /* sched.text is aling to function alignment to secure we have same > > > -- > > > 2.46.0.rc1.232.g9752f9e123-goog > > > > >
