2007-01-24[POWERPC] Add support for R_PPC_ADDR16_HI relocationsSimon Vallet
apply_relocate_add() does not support R_PPC_ADDR16_HI relocations, which prevents some non gcc-built modules to be loaded. Signed-off-by: Simon Vallet <svallet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2006-12-11[POWERPC] Generic BUG for powerpcJeremy Fitzhardinge
This makes powerpc use the generic BUG machinery. The biggest reports the function name, since it is redundant with kallsyms, and not needed in general. There is an overall reduction of code, since module_32/64 duplicated several functions. Unfortunately there's no way to tell gcc that BUG won't return, so the BUG macro includes a goto loop. This will generate a real jmp instruction, which is never used.

2006-10-25[POWERPC] Support feature fixups in modulesBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This patch adds support for feature fixups in modules. This involves adding support for R_PPC64_REL64 relocs to the 64 bits module loader. It also modifies modpost.c to ignore the powerpc fixup sections (or it would warn when used in .init.text).

2006-03-27powerpc: Move module.c over to arch/powerpcPaul Mackerras
... and rename it to module_32.c since it is the 32-bit version. The 32-bit and 64-bit ABIs are sufficiently different that having a merged version isn't really practical. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
