This was because per generated vmlinux.lds it was emitted right next to .rodata with strings etc hence could be randomly unaligned. Fix that by ensuring a word alignment. While 4 would suffice for 32bit arches and problem at hand, it is probably better to put 8. | Path: (null) CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper Not tainted | 3.15.0-rc3-next-20140430 #2 | task: 8f044000 ti: 8f01e000 task.ti: 8f01e000 | | [ECR ]: 0x00230400 => Misaligned r/w from 0x800fb0d3 | [EFA ]: 0x800fb0d3 | [BLINK ]: do_one_initcall+0x86/0x1bc | [ERET ]: init_kprobes+0x52/0x120 Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: <rusty@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: <rdunlap@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: <jeremy@xxxxxxxx> Cc: <arnd@xxxxxxxx> Cc: <dl9pf@xxxxxx> Cc: <sparse@xxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: <anil.s.keshavamurthy@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: <davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: <ananth@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: <masami.hiramatsu.pt@xxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: <chrisw@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: <akataria@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: anton Kolesov <Anton.Kolesov@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/5361DB14.7010406@xxxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxxxxx> --- include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h b/include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h index 40ceb3c..8e0204a 100644 --- a/include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h +++ b/include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h @@ -110,7 +110,8 @@ #endif #ifdef CONFIG_KPROBES -#define KPROBE_BLACKLIST() VMLINUX_SYMBOL(__start_kprobe_blacklist) = .; \ +#define KPROBE_BLACKLIST() . = ALIGN(8); \ + VMLINUX_SYMBOL(__start_kprobe_blacklist) = .; \ *(_kprobe_blacklist) \ VMLINUX_SYMBOL(__stop_kprobe_blacklist) = .; #else -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-tip-commits" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
