https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=222898 ------- Comment #14 from bwalle@novell.com 2006-12-19 07:55 MST ------- There's no difference between normal kernel and kdump kernel. The only difference is that the kdump kernel is loaded by kexec userspace utility which checks for overlapping physical segments in the ELF header. I don't know what @nobits means (and I didn't find that term in the info page). My question is simply: Why is it necessary to put BSS on the end just that the linker puts for example the section data.init_task only into the segment data.init and not also into data? I'm not talking about the linker script I attached but about the linker script I'll attach now to clarify. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
