Acked-by: Andrew Cooper <[email protected]> The CI tests passing makes this a fairly obvious one to take. But, some further observations from https://cirrus-ci.com/task/4903778798796800 [10:09:34.952] INIT_O arch/x86/acpi/boot.init.o [10:09:34.971] LD arch/x86/acpi/built_in.o [10:09:34.975] x86_64-elf-ld: warning: arch/x86/acpi/boot.init.o: missing .note.GNU-stack section implies executable stack [10:09:34.975] x86_64-elf-ld: NOTE: This behaviour is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of the linker ... [10:09:35.720] LD arch/x86/boot/built_in.o [10:09:35.724] CC common/hypfs.o [10:09:35.727] x86_64-elf-ld: warning: arch/x86/boot/reloc-trampoline.o: missing .note.GNU-stack section implies executable stack [10:09:35.727] x86_64-elf-ld: NOTE: This behaviour is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of the linker ... [10:09:40.836] LD arch/x86/hvm/svm/built_in.o [10:09:40.840] x86_64-elf-ld: warning: arch/x86/hvm/svm/vmcb.o: missing .note.GNU-stack section implies executable stack [10:09:40.840] x86_64-elf-ld: NOTE: This behaviour is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of the linker and various other examples too. The warning comes when linking built_in.o's, and while I could believe there's something weird about *.init.o and/or reloc-trampoline.o, the complaint about vmcb.o is weird because that's just a plain C file. The other impacted (non built_in.o) objects look to be: arch/x86/hvm/vmx/vvmx.o arch/x86/pv/dom0_build.init.o arch/x86/x86_64/cpufreq.o common/unzstd.init.o and it's not obvious what these have in common to be the (only) objects lacking .note.GNU-stack. Also, during the final link steps for xen.efi, we twice get: [10:09:57.995] Warning: relocation to r/o section .text:00000048 [10:09:57.995] Warning: relocation to r/o section .text:00000090 which smells like the multiboot header. ~Andrew
