Pull x86 asm updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle were:
- Cross-arch changes to move the linker sections for NOTES and
EXCEPTION_TABLE into the RO_DATA area, where they belong on most
architectures. (Kees Cook)
- Switch the x86 linker fill byte from x90 (NOP) to 0xcc (INT3), to
trap jumps into the middle of those padding areas instead of
sliding execution. (Kees Cook)
- A thorough cleanup of symbol definitions within x86 assembler code.
The rather randomly named macros got streamlined around a
(hopefully) straightforward naming scheme:
SYM_START(name, linkage, align...)
SYM_END(name, sym_type)
SYM_FUNC_START(name)
SYM_FUNC_END(name)
SYM_CODE_START(name)
SYM_CODE_END(name)
SYM_DATA_START(name)
SYM_DATA_END(name)
etc - with about three times of these basic primitives with some
label, local symbol or attribute variant, expressed via postfixes.
No change in functionality intended. (Jiri Slaby)
- Misc other changes, cleanups and smaller fixes"
