Description Jocelyn Turcotte 2009-10-28 09:08:06 PDT
It was missing the ".text" directive at the top of the file, indicating that code would follow. Without it, the assembler created "NOTYPE" symbols, which would result in linker errors.

It’s not clear why it’s necessary given that this code is well-tested on 32-bit Linux already.  There’s nothing in the ChangeLog to explain it either.

Patch

Changing to r- due to the above comments
Comment 4 Thiago Macieira 2009-11-10 05:02:11 PST
That change (PLT) is unrelated, but makes sense.

Feel free to remove it.

But in any case, the convention didn't change between 32- and 64-bit. So if one architecture requires it, both should.

+".text\n"
line.

ChangeLog entry should be at the top of the file.

Patch v2

@kenneth:  Actually I think svn-apply should handle this patch correctly regardless.  svn-apply has code to move ChangeLog entries to the top automatically.
Comment 8 Eric Seidel (no email) 2009-11-11 11:16:15 PST
@kenneth:  Nope. you were right.  svn-apply did not move this entry, so your r- was correct.

I used:
curl "https://bug-30863-attachments.webkit.org/attachment.cgi?id=42976" | svn-apply
to test my theory.
Comment 9 Mark Rowe (bdash) 2009-11-11 11:17:05 PST
svn-apply will only do it if the entry in the patch was at the top of the file to begin with.  In this case it’s 1000+ lines down in the file.
