From: Vasily Gorbik <gor@linux.ibm.com> stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.133 commit fbf60f83e241f0ef967644ca06455f37fcea064b category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I5PTAS CVE: CVE-2022-29900,CVE-2022-23816,CVE-2022-29901 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- commit 46c7405df7de8deb97229eacebcee96d61415f3f upstream. Currently x86 cross-compilation fails on big endian system with: x86_64-cross-ld: init/main.o: invalid string offset 488112128 >= 6229 for section `.strtab' Mark new ELF data in elf_create_undef_symbol() as symbol, so that libelf does endianness handling correctly.
