The section of bpfilter UMH blob is the ".bpfilter_umh". but this is not an explicit section. so linking warning occurred at compile time for the powerpc. So, this patch makes use of the ".rodata" instead of the ".bpfilter_umh". Config condition: CONFIG_BPFILTER=y CONFIG_BPFILTER_UMH=y Result: ld: warning: orphan section `.bpfilter_umh' from `net/bpfilter/bpfilter_umh_blob.o' being placed in section `.bpfilter_umh' Fixes: 61fbf593 ("net: bpfilter: restart bpfilter_umh when error occurred") Reported-by:

The bpfilter_umh will be stopped via __stop_umh() when the bpfilter error occurred. The bpfilter_umh() couldn't start again because there is no restart routine. The section of the bpfilter_umh_{start/end} is no longer .init.rodata because these area should be reused in the restart routine. hence the section name is changed to .bpfilter_umh. The bpfilter_ops->start() is restart callback. it will be called when bpfilter_umh is stopped. The stop bit means bpfilter_umh is stopped. this bit is set by both start and stop routine. Before this patch, Test commands: $ iptables -vnL $ kill -9 <pid of bpfilter_umh> $ iptables -vnL [ 480.045136] bpfilter: write fail -32 $ iptables -vnL All iptables commands will fail. After this patch, Test commands: $ iptables -vnL $ kill -9 <pid of bpfilter_umh> $ iptables -vnL $ iptables -vnL Now, all iptables commands will work.

What we want here is to embed a user-space program into the kernel. Instead of the complex ELF magic, let's simply wrap it in the assembly with the '.incbin' directive. Signed-off-by:
