In 32-bit executables the .plt entry size can be set to 4 when it is really
16. In fact the only sizes used for x86 (32 or 64 bit) are 8 or 16, so
check for those and, if not, use the alignment to choose which it is.
Example on Ubuntu 22.04 gcc 11.3:
Before:
$ cat tstpltlib.c
void fn1(void) {}
void fn2(void) {}
void fn3(void) {}
void fn4(void) {}
$ cat tstplt.c
void fn1(void);
void fn2(void);
void fn3(void);
void fn4(void);
int main()
{
fn4();
fn1();
fn2();
fn3();
return 0;
}
$ gcc --version

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.
