The quilt patch titled Subject: build-id: require program headers to be right after ELF header has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was build-id-require-program-headers-to-be-right-after-elf-header.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-nonmm-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm ------------------------------------------------------ From: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: build-id: require program headers to be right after ELF header Date: Fri, 21 Jun 2024 21:39:33 +0300 Neither ELF spec not ELF loader require program header to be placed right after ELF header, but build-id code very much assumes such placement: See find_get_page(vma->vm_file->f_mapping, 0); line and checks against PAGE_SIZE. Returns errors for now until someone rewrites build-id parser to be more inline with load_elf_binary().
