Linux kernel source tree
388708028e
The arm64 assembler in binutils 2.32 and above generates a program
property note in a note section, .note.gnu.property, to encode used x86
ISAs and features. But the kernel linker script only contains a single
NOTE segment:
PHDRS
{
text PT_LOAD FLAGS(5) FILEHDR PHDRS; /* PF_R|PF_X */
dynamic PT_DYNAMIC FLAGS(4); /* PF_R */
note PT_NOTE FLAGS(4); /* PF_R */
}
The NOTE segment generated by the vDSO linker script is aligned to 4 bytes.
But the .note.gnu.property section must be aligned to 8 bytes on arm64.
$ readelf -n vdso64.so
Displaying notes found in: .note
Owner Data size Description
Linux 0x00000004 Unknown note type: (0x00000000)
description data: 06 00 00 00
readelf: Warning: note with invalid namesz and/or descsz found at offset 0x20
readelf: Warning: type: 0x78, namesize: 0x00000100, descsize: 0x756e694c, alignment: 8
Since the note.gnu.property section in the vDSO is not checked by the
dynamic linker, discard the .note.gnu.property sections in the vDSO.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
