When building with CONFIG_LD_ORPHAN_WARN after selecting CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_LD_ORPHAN_WARN, there are a lot of warnings around the GOT and PLT sections: s390-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.plt' from `arch/s390/kernel/head64.o' being placed in section `.plt' s390-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.got' from `arch/s390/kernel/head64.o' being placed in section `.got' s390-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.got.plt' from `arch/s390/kernel/head64.o' being placed in section `.got.plt' s390-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.iplt' from `arch/s390/kernel/head64.o' being placed in section `.iplt' s390-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.igot.plt' from `arch/s390/kernel/head64.o' being placed in section `.igot.plt' s390-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.iplt' from `arch/s390/boot/head.o' being placed in section `.iplt' s390-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.igot.plt' from `arch/s390/boot/head.o' being placed in section `.igot.plt' s390-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.got' from `arch/s390/boot/head.o' being placed in section `.got' Currently, only the '.got' section is actually emitted in the final binary. In a manner similar to other architectures, put the '.got' section near the '.data' section and coalesce the PLT sections, checking that the final section is zero sized, which is a safe/tested approach versus full discard.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
