From ffd3eaf178b0f616a071e510e289d937330b0b35 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joe Lawrence Date: Mon, 24 Feb 2020 16:18:48 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/vdso: remove deprecated VDS64_HAS_DESCRIPTORS references The original 2005 patch that introduced the powerpc vdso, pre-git ("ppc64: Implement a vDSO and use it for signal trampoline") notes that: ... symbols exposed by the vDSO aren't "normal" function symbols, apps can't be expected to link against them directly, the vDSO's are both seen as if they were linked at 0 and the symbols just contain offsets to the various functions. This is done on purpose to avoid a relocation step (ppc64 functions normally have descriptors with abs addresses in them). When glibc uses those functions, it's expected to use it's own trampolines that know how to reach them. Despite that explanation, there remains dead #ifdef VDS64_HAS_DESCRIPTORS code-blocks that provide alternate function definitions that setup function descriptors. Since VDS64_HAS_DESCRIPTORS has been unused for all these years, we might as well finally remove it from the codebase.
