This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled LoongArch: Record pc instead of offset in la_abs relocation to the 6.6-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: loongarch-record-pc-instead-of-offset-in-la_abs-relo.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.6 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit cec6fee8bbb8adc5d599ca8bab1706f28b5f1e55 Author: WANG Rui <wangrui@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Nov 21 15:03:25 2023 +0800 LoongArch: Record pc instead of offset in la_abs relocation [ Upstream commit aa0cbc1b506b090c3a775b547c693ada108cc0d7 ] To clarify, the previous version functioned flawlessly. However, it's worth noting that the LLVM's LoongArch backend currently lacks support for cross-section label calculations. With this patch, we enable the use of clang to compile relocatable kernels.
