ARM: 7829/1: Add ".text.unlikely" and ".text.hot" to arm unwind tables

dianders · Russell King · commit 849b882b52df · 2013-09-02T13:49:47.000+01:00
It appears that gcc may put some code in ".text.unlikely" or ".text.hot" sections. Right now those aren't accounted for in unwind tables. Add them. I found some docs about this at: http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.6.2/gcc.pdf Without this, if you have slub_debug turned on, you can get messages that look like this: unwind: Index not found 7f008c50 Signed-off-by: Doug Anderson <dianders@chromium.org> Acked-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
