The patch titled kbuild: check SHT_REL sections has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is kbuild-check-sht_rel-sections.patch This patch was probably dropped from -mm because it has now been merged into a subsystem tree or into Linus's tree, or because it was folded into its parent patch in the -mm tree. ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: kbuild: check SHT_REL sections From: Atsushi Nemoto <anemo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> I found that modpost can not detect section mismatch on mips and i386. On mips64, the modpost (with r_info layout fix) can detect it. The current modpst only checks SHT_RELA section but I suppose SHT_REL section should be checked also. This patch does not contain r_info layout fix. I'll post an updated r_info layout fix on next mail. Check SHT_REL sections as like as SHT_RELA sections to detect section mismatch.
