Subject: [PATCH] Include __param section in read-only data range
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.19-rc1~914
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7583ddfd3aae1007bc4fc67ea4c07d573d376e9e;p=linux-2.6

[PATCH] Include __param section in read-only data range

The param section is an array of "kernel_param" structures, storing only
constant data: pointer to name, permission of the variable pointed to by
(void *)arg and pointers to set/get methods.

Move end_rodata down to include __param section in the read-only range used
by CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA.
