From 4df3c9ec12077384e0add54f28a9b079a87b59ef Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Helge Deller Date: Fri, 29 Apr 2016 22:07:31 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] parisc: Merge ftrace C-helper and assembler functions into .text.hot section When enabling all-branch ftrace support (CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES) the kernel gets really huge and some ftrace assembler functions like mcount can't reach the ftrace helper functions which are written in C. Avoid this problem of too distant branches by moving the ftrace C-helper functions into the .text.hot section which is put in front of the standard .text section by the linker.
