From 26f5ef2e3c3c18f1dc31461ddf1db00b014edcd4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "H. Peter Anvin" Date: Tue, 25 Mar 2014 13:41:36 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] x86, vdso: Actually discard the .discard sections The .discard/.discard.* sections are used to generate intermediate results for the assembler (effectively "test assembly".) The output is waste and should not be retained. Cc: Stefani Seibold Cc: Andy Lutomirski Signed-off-by: H.
