[PATCH v1 1/3] riscv/kexec: handle R_RISCV_CALL_PLT relocation type

From: Petr Tesarik
Date: Tue Jul 25 2023 - 04:49:29 EST


From: Torsten Duwe <duwe@xxxxxxx>

R_RISCV_CALL has been deprecated and replaced by R_RISCV_CALL_PLT. See Enum
18-19 in Table 3. Relocation types here:

https://github.com/riscv-non-isa/riscv-elf-psabi-doc/blob/master/riscv-elf.adoc

It was deprecated in ("Deprecated R_RISCV_CALL, prefer R_RISCV_CALL_PLT"):

https://github.com/riscv-non-isa/riscv-elf-psabi-doc/commit/a0dced85018d7a0ec17023c9389cbd70b1dbc1b0

Recent tools (at least GNU binutils-2.40) already use R_RISCV_CALL_PLT.
Kernels built with such binutils fail kexec_load_file(2) with:

kexec_image: Unknown rela relocation: 19
kexec_image: Error loading purgatory ret=-8

The binary code at the call site remains the same, so tell
arch_kexec_apply_relocations_add() to handle _PLT alike.

Fixes: 838b3e28488f ("RISC-V: Load purgatory in kexec_file")
