From bb152f53120d66c98c1f16518407df6a84f23714 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arjan van de Ven Date: Fri, 6 Jan 2006 00:12:05 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] x86/x86_64: mark rodata section read-only: make some datastructures const Mark some key kernel datastructures readonly. This patch was previously posted on Jun 28th but was back then not merged because nothing was enforcing rodata anyway.. well that changed now :) Patch by Christoph Lameter and Dave Jones Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar Cc: Andi Kleen Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- arch/i386/kernel/entry.S | 1 + arch/i386/kernel/syscall_table.S | 1 - 2 files changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'arch/i386/kernel') diff --git a/arch/i386/kernel/entry.S b/arch/i386/kernel/entry.S index e50b9315524..607c0600750 100644 --- a/arch/i386/kernel/entry.S +++ b/arch/i386/kernel/entry.S @@ -657,6 +657,7 @@ ENTRY(spurious_interrupt_bug) pushl $do_spurious_interrupt_bug jmp error_code +.section .rodata,"a" #include "syscall_table.S" syscall_table_size=(.-sys_call_table) diff --git a/arch/i386/kernel/syscall_table.S b/arch/i386/kernel/syscall_table.S index 9b21a31d4f4..f7ba4acc20e 100644 --- a/arch/i386/kernel/syscall_table.S +++ b/arch/i386/kernel/syscall_table.S @@ -1,4 +1,3 @@ -.data ENTRY(sys_call_table) .long sys_restart_syscall /* 0 - old "setup()" system call, used for restarting */ .long sys_exit -- cgit v1.2.3
