From 41fb9d54f12b87fb1f670653e95d34668a08e8ee Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Palmer Dabbelt Date: Fri, 8 Feb 2019 09:11:08 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "RISC-V: Make BSS section as the last section in vmlinux.lds.S" At least BBL relies on the flat binaries containing all the bytes in the actual image to exist in the file. Before this revert the flat images dropped the trailing zeros, which caused BBL to put its copy of the device tree where Linux thought the BSS was, which wreaks all sorts of havoc. Manifesting the bug is a bit subtle because BBL aligns everything to 2MiB page boundaries, but with large enough kernels you're almost certain to get bitten by the bug. While moving the sections around isn't a great long-term fix, it will at least avoid producing broken images. This reverts commit 22e6a2e14cb8ebcae059488cf24e778e4058c2bf.
