The patch titled -fstack-protector feature: annotate the PDA offsets has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is fstack-protector-feature-annotate-the-pda-offsets.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: -fstack-protector feature: annotate the PDA offsets From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Change the comments in the pda structure to make the first fields to have their offset documented and to have the comments aligned. The stack protector series needs a field at offset 40 (gcc ABI); annotate upto 40 for that reason.
