From 7e21fbca26d18327cf7cabaad08df276a06a07d8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexander Graf Date: Tue, 12 Jun 2018 07:48:37 +0200 Subject: efi_loader: Rename sections to allow for implicit data Some times gcc may generate data that is then used within code that may be part of an efi runtime section. That data could be jump tables, constants or strings. In order to make sure we catch these, we need to ensure that gcc emits them into a section that we can relocate together with all the other efi runtime bits. This only works if the -ffunction-sections and -fdata-sections flags are passed and the efi runtime functions are in a section that starts with ".text". Up to now we had all efi runtime bits in sections that did not interfere with the normal section naming scheme, but this forces us to do so. Hence we need to move the efi_loader text/data/rodata sections before the global *(.text*) catch-all section. With this patch in place, we should hopefully have an easier time to extend the efi runtime functionality in the future.
