[PATCH v6 03/29] vmlinux.lds.h: Avoid KASAN and KCSAN's unwanted sections

From: Kees Cook <hidden>
Date: 2020-08-21 19:46:31
Also in: linux-arch, linux-efi, lkml
Subsystem: generic include/asm header files, the rest · Maintainers: Arnd Bergmann, Linus Torvalds

KASAN (-fsanitize=kernel-address) and KCSAN (-fsanitize=thread)
produce unwanted[1] .eh_frame and .init_array.* sections. Add them to
COMMON_DISCARDS, except with CONFIG_CONSTRUCTORS, which wants to keep
.init_array.* sections.
