Xen puts virtual and physical addresses into ELF notes that are treated by the linker as relocatable by default. Doing so is not only pointless, given that the ELF notes are only intended for consumption by Xen before the kernel boots. It is also a KASLR leak, given that the kernel's ELF notes are exposed via the world readable /sys/kernel/notes. So emit these constants in a way that prevents the linker from marking them as relocatable. This involves place-relative relocations (which subtract their own virtual address from the symbol value) and linker provided absolute symbols that add the address of the place to the desired value.

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 reStructuredText 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.
