[PATCH 23/33] modpost white list pattern adjustment

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

 



From: Jan Beulich <[email protected]>

gcc puts data into .data.rel or .data.rel.* on some architectures (e.g.
ia64) or under certain conditions, so whatever is legal relative to
.data should also be legal for those other sections. Fixes a few
modpost warnings on ia64.
