Also in:
linux-kbuild, linux-mips, linux-mm, linux-riscv, linux-s390, linux-um, linuxppc-dev, lkml, llvm, loongarch
Subsystem:
generic vdso library, library code, linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), the rest · Maintainers:
Andy Lutomirski, Thomas Gleixner, Vincenzo Frascino, Andrew Morton, Madhavan Srinivasan, Linus Torvalds
The vdsocheck tool validates the object files and final .so library. It can detect if the compiler created relocations which are incompatible with the vDSO which need to be worked around. Wire it up for the architecture.
