2 * This supplies .note.* sections to go into the PT_NOTE inside the vDSO text.
3 * Here we can supply some information useful to userland.

18 * Add a special note telling glibc's dynamic linker a fake hardware
19 * flavor that it will use to choose the search path for libraries in the
20 * same way it uses real hardware capabilities like "mmx".
21 * We supply "nosegneg" as the fake capability, to indicate that we
22 * do not like negative offsets in instructions using segment overrides,
23 * since we implement those inefficiently. This makes it possible to
24 * install libraries optimized to avoid those access patterns in someplace
25 * like /lib/i686/tls/nosegneg. Note that an /etc/ld.so.conf.d/file
26 * corresponding to the bits here is needed to make ldconfig work right.
29 * to match the mapping of bit to name that we give here.
31 * At runtime, the fake hardware feature will be considered to be present
32 * if its bit is set in the mask word. So, we start with the mask 0, and
33 * at boot time we set VDSO_NOTE_NONEGSEG_BIT if running under Xen.
