Subject: [PATCH v2] x86, realmode: explicitly set entry via command line
Date: Tue, 24 Sep 2019 12:33:08 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190924193310.132104-1-ndesaulniers@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <CAKwvOdmFqPSyeKn-0th_ca9B3QU63G__kEJ=X0tfjhE+1_p=FQ@mail.gmail.com>

Linking with ld.lld via $ make LD=ld.lld produces the warning:
ld.lld: warning: cannot find entry symbol _start; defaulting to 0x1000

Linking with ld.bfd shows the default entry is 0x1000:
$ readelf -h arch/x86/realmode/rm/realmode.elf | grep Entry
  Entry point address:               0x1000

While ld.lld is being pedantic, just set the entry point explicitly,
instead of depending on the implicit default.

Changes V1 -> V2:
* Use command line flag, rather than linker script, as ld.bfd produces a
  syntax error for `ENTRY(0x1000)` but is happy with `-e 0x1000`
