From 69e97c028b25ef10018d513ead6e7caad276e19f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sam Ravnborg Date: Fri, 1 Feb 2008 17:49:41 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] x86: silence section mismatch warning in smpboot_64.c Silence the following warning: WARNING: o-x86_64/arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o(.text+0x17cd3): Section mismatch in reference from the function remove_cpu_from_maps() to the variable .cpuinit.data:cpu_initialized remove_cpu:maps() had a single user: __cpu_disable() so mark it static and annotate it with __ref to silence the warning from modpost. _cpu_disable() has a single user in kernel/cpu.c: => take_cpu_down() which again has a single user in the following call: => __stop_machine_run(take_cpu_down, &tcd_param, cpu); Here a kthread is created. So maybe the warning is correct and the right fix is to remove the __cpuinitdata annotation of cpu_initialized? Note: The analysis were disturbed by the fact that we had a variable with the same name in cpu/common.c - but this is 32 bit only] Note: Should smpboot_64 use cpu_clear()?
