[PATCH] i386: Relocate VDSO ELF headers to match mapped location with COMPAT_VDSO
Some versions of libc can't deal with a VDSO which doesn't have its
ELF headers matching its mapped address. COMPAT_VDSO maps the VDSO at
a specific system-wide fixed address. Previously this was all done at
build time, on the grounds that the fixed VDSO address is always at
the top of the address space. However, a hypervisor may reserve some
of that address space, pushing the fixmap address down.
This patch does the adjustment dynamically at runtime, depending on
the runtime location of the VDSO fixmap.
[ Patch has been through several hands: Jan Beulich wrote the orignal
version; Zach reworked it, and Jeremy converted it to relocate phdrs
as well as sections. ]
