From: Ralf Baechle <[email protected]> This is needed on MIPS where the same mechanism as get_user() is used to intercept bus error exceptions for some hardware probes. Without this patch modpost will throw spurious warnings: LD vmlinux SYSMAP System.map SYSMAP .tmp_System.map MODPOST vmlinux WARNING: arch/mips/sgi-ip22/built-in.o(__dbe_table+0x0): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <[email protected]> --- scripts/mod/modpost.c | 1 + 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/scripts/mod/modpost.c b/scripts/mod/modpost.c index 3f3848f..04579a5 100644 --- a/scripts/mod/modpost.c +++ b/scripts/mod/modpost.c @@ -1141,6 +1141,7 @@ static int init_section_ref_ok(const char *name) const char **s; /* Absolute section names */ const char *namelist1[] = { + "__dbe_table", /* MIPS generate these */ "__ftr_fixup", /* powerpc cpu feature fixup */ "__fw_ftr_fixup", /* powerpc firmware feature fixup */ "__param", -- 1.5.0.6 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
