commit d799769188529abc6cbf035a10087a51f7832b6b upstream.
When ld detects unaligned relocations, it emits R_PPC64_UADDR64
relocations instead of R_PPC64_RELATIVE. Currently R_PPC64_UADDR64 are
detected by arch/powerpc/tools/relocs_check.sh and expected not to work.
Below is a simple chunk to trigger this behaviour (this disables
optimization for the demonstration purposes only, this also happens with
-O1/-O2 when CONFIG_PRINTK_INDEX=y, for example):
\#pragma GCC push_options
\#pragma GCC optimize ("O0")
struct entry {
const char *file;
int line;
} __attribute__((packed));
static const struct entry e1 = { .file = __FILE__, .line = __LINE__ };
static const struct entry e2 = { .file = __FILE__, .line = __LINE__ };
...
prom_printf("e1=%s %lx %lx\n", e1.file, (unsigned long) e1.file, mfmsr());
prom_printf("e2=%s %lx\n", e2.file, (unsigned long) e2.file);
\#pragma GCC pop_options
This adds support for UADDR64 for 64bit. This reuses __dynamic_symtab
from the 32bit code which supports more relocation types already.
Because RELACOUNT includes only R_PPC64_RELATIVE, this replaces it with
RELASZ which is the size of all relocation records.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
