.LSTARTFDEDLSI1 says:
/* HACK: The dwarf2 unwind routines will subtract 1 from the
return address to get an address in the middle of the
presumed call instruction. Since we didn't get here via
a call, we need to include the nop before the real start
to make up for it. */
.long .LSTART_sigreturn-1-. /* PC-relative start address */
But commit 69d0627a7f6e891189124d784d2fa90cae7c449a (x86 vDSO: reorder
vdso32 code) from 2.6.25 replaced
.org __kernel_vsyscall+32,0x90
by ALIGN right before __kernel_sigreturn. Of course, ALIGN need not
generate any nop in there. Esp. gcc5 collapses vclock_gettime.o and
int80.o together with no generated nops as "ALIGN". In that case
kernel does not even link:
ld: .eh_frame_hdr table[4] FDE at 0000000000000648 overlaps table[5] FDE at 0000000000000670.
So fix this by adding there at least a single nop and make the
function ALIGN possibly with more nops then.
Kudos for reporting and diagnosing should go to Richard.
