[PATCH x86/mm] x86 vDSO: canonicalize sysenter .eh_frame

From: Roland McGrath
Date: Thu Dec 06 2007 - 20:15:28 EST



Some assembler versions automagically optimize .eh_frame contents,
changing their size. The CFI in sysenter.S was not using optimal
formatting, so it would be changed by newer/smarter assemblers.
This ran afoul of the wired constant for padding out the other vDSO
images to match its size. This changes the original hand-coded
source to use the optimal format encoding for its operations. That
leaves nothing more for a fancy assembler to do, so the sizes will
match the wired-in expected size regardless of the assembler version.
