[PATCH 5.0 094/346] s390/kexec_file: Fix detection of text segment in ELF loader

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

 



[ Upstream commit 729829d775c9a5217abc784b2f16087d79c4eec8 ]

To register data for the next kernel (command line, oldmem_base, etc.) the
current kernel needs to find the ELF segment that contains head.S. This is
currently done by checking ifor 'phdr->p_paddr == 0'. This works fine for
the current kernel build but in theory the first few pages could be
skipped. Make the detection more robust by checking if the entry point lies
within the segment.
