MIPS: Ensure ELF appended dtb is relocated

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

 



From: Yasha Cherikovsky <yasha.che3@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 3f0a53bc6482fb09770982a8447981260ea258dc upstream.

This fixes booting with the combination of CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y
and CONFIG_MIPS_ELF_APPENDED_DTB=y.

Sections that appear after the relocation table are not relocated
on system boot (except .bss, which has special handling).

With CONFIG_MIPS_ELF_APPENDED_DTB, the dtb is part of the
vmlinux ELF, so it must be relocated together with everything else.

Fixes: 069fd766271d ("MIPS: Reserve space for relocation table")
