From: Alexander Lobakin <alobakin@xxxxx> commit 8ac7c87acdcac156670f9920c8acbd84308ff4b1 upstream. MIPS uses its own declaration of rwdata, and thus it should be kept in sync with the asm-generic one. Currently PAGE_ALIGNED_DATA() is missing from the linker script, which emits the following ld warnings: mips-alpine-linux-musl-ld: warning: orphan section `.data..page_aligned' from `arch/mips/kernel/vdso.o' being placed in section `.data..page_aligned' mips-alpine-linux-musl-ld: warning: orphan section `.data..page_aligned' from `arch/mips/vdso/vdso-image.o' being placed in section `.data..page_aligned' Add the necessary declaration, so the mentioned structures will be placed in vmlinux as intended: ffffffff80630580 D __end_once ffffffff80630580 D __start___dyndbg ffffffff80630580 D __start_once ffffffff80630580 D __stop___dyndbg ffffffff80634000 d mips_vdso_data ffffffff80638000 d vdso_data ffffffff80638580 D _gp ffffffff8063c000 T __init_begin ffffffff8063c000 D _edata ffffffff8063c000 T _sinittext -> ffffffff805a4000 D __end_init_task ffffffff805a4000 D __nosave_begin ffffffff805a4000 D __nosave_end ffffffff805a4000 d mips_vdso_data ffffffff805a8000 d vdso_data ffffffff805ac000 D mmlist_lock ffffffff805ac080 D tasklist_lock Fixes: ebb5e78cc634 ("MIPS: Initial implementation of a VDSO") Signed-off-by: Alexander Lobakin <alobakin@xxxxx> Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Nathan Chancellor <natechancellor@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx # 4.4+ Signed-off-by: Thomas Bogendoerfer <tsbogend@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- arch/mips/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) --- a/arch/mips/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S +++ b/arch/mips/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S @@ -93,6 +93,7 @@ SECTIONS INIT_TASK_DATA(THREAD_SIZE) NOSAVE_DATA + PAGE_ALIGNED_DATA(PAGE_SIZE) CACHELINE_ALIGNED_DATA(1 << CONFIG_MIPS_L1_CACHE_SHIFT) READ_MOSTLY_DATA(1 << CONFIG_MIPS_L1_CACHE_SHIFT) DATA_DATA
