[PATCH]: -mm tree remove __exit from loop_exit

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Andrew, please patch ASAP as compile on SGI ia64 is broken.  Please note this
patch does not address why modpost did not pick up this error.

ie) ./scripts/mod/modpost drivers/block/built-in.o yields no information about
the section mismatch.  AFAIK, it should spit out a loud WARNING.

Patch against 2.6.22-rc3-mm1.

Current mm tree does not build with sn2_defconfig.  Build results in error:

`.exit.text' referenced in section `.init.text' of drivers/built-in.o: defined in discarded section `.exit.text' of drivers/built-in.o
make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1

__exit loop_exit is now being called from __init loop_init which causes this error.
