The SHA512 code we adopted from the OpenSSL project uses a rather
peculiar way to take the address of the round constant table: it
takes the address of the sha256_block_data_order() routine, and
substracts a constant known quantity to arrive at the base of the
table, which is emitted by the same assembler code right before
the routine's entry point.
However, recent versions of binutils have helpfully changed the
behavior of references emitted via an ADR instruction when running
in Thumb2 mode: it now takes the Thumb execution mode bit into
account, which is bit 0 af the address. This means the produced
table address also has bit 0 set, and so we end up with an address
value pointing 1 byte past the start of the table, which results
in crashes such as

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 Restructured Text 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.
