Hi Alan,
Have you seen this bug report:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19421
Summary: Missing weak symbols in kernel modules on ppc64el
Quite a few symbols in kernel modules on ppc64el are dropped after upgrading to
binutils 2.25. This in turn completely breaks module loading on ppc64el
systems, per this Debian bug report:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=808246
It seems that the cause of this was the patch for PR 4317:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4317
Perhaps we need to allow some targets to require that undefined locals
are preserved ?
Cheers
Nick
