    arm64: switch to relative exception tables · 6c94f27a
    Ard Biesheuvel 提交于
    Instead of using absolute addresses for both the exception location
    and the fixup, use offsets relative to the exception table entry values.
    Not only does this cut the size of the exception table in half, it is
    also a prerequisite for KASLR, since absolute exception table entries
    are subject to dynamic relocation, which is incompatible with the sorting
    of the exception table that occurs at build time.
    
    This patch also introduces the _ASM_EXTABLE preprocessor macro (which
    exists on x86 as well) and its _asm_extable assembly counterpart, as
    shorthands to emit exception table entries.
