It's the (ELF) section attributes for the section. If this is executable code, it should be "ax"; if it's writable, it should be "wa"; if it's not initialised, it should be "". If the section name followed the normal naming conventions, (newer) GCC could figure out the section attributes itself; but then, ".text.kprobes" would imply executable, maybe the section is really misnamed? Or maybe you need the "ax" flags :-) Segher _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
