Even so it feels gross to me. It does, might be less gross to have prom_init.c be .incbin'ed in vmlinux like the vdso is ... better than tacking it at the end. Still makes it annoying to debug crashes in prom_init itself. I'll review your patch when I get a chance as the "least bad" solution :-) Cheers, Ben. _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
