MIPS: OCTEON: omit ELF NOTE segments
OCTEON Pre-SDK-1.8.1 bootloaders can not handle PT_NOTE program headers,
so do not emit them.
Before the patch:
$ readelf --program-headers octeon-vmlinux
Elf file type is EXEC (Executable file)
Entry point 0xffffffff815d09d0
There are 2 program headers, starting at offset 64
Program Headers:
Type Offset VirtAddr PhysAddr
FileSiz MemSiz Flags Align
LOAD 0x0000000000001000 0xffffffff81100000 0xffffffff81100000
0x0000000000b57f80 0x0000000001b86360 RWE 1000
NOTE 0x00000000004e02e0 0xffffffff815df2e0 0xffffffff815df2e0
0x0000000000000024 0x0000000000000024 R 4
After the patch:
$ readelf --program-headers octeon-vmlinux
Elf file type is EXEC (Executable file)
Entry point 0xffffffff815d09d0
There are 1 program headers, starting at offset 64
Program Headers:
Type Offset VirtAddr PhysAddr
FileSiz MemSiz Flags Align
LOAD 0x0000000000001000 0xffffffff81100000 0xffffffff81100000
0x0000000000b57f80 0x0000000001b86360 RWE 1000
The patch was tested on DSR-1000N router.
