Fix the following sparse warning: arch/x86/kernel/crash.c:59:15: warning: symbol 'crash_zero_bytes' was not declared. Should it be static? First, make crash_zero_bytes static. In addition, crash_zero_bytes is used when CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE is set, so make it only available under CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE. Otherwise, if CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE is not set, the following warning will appear when make crash_zero_bytes static: arch/x86/kernel/crash.c:59:22: warning: ‘crash_zero_bytes’ defined but not used [-Wunused-variable] Fixes: dd5f726076cc ("kexec: support for kexec on panic using new system call") Signed-off-by: Tiezhu Yang <kernelpatch@xxxxxxx> Acked-by: Dave Young <dyoung@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: kexec@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx --- arch/x86/kernel/crash.c | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/arch/x86/kernel/crash.c b/arch/x86/kernel/crash.c index 576b2e1..f13480e 100644 --- a/arch/x86/kernel/crash.c +++ b/arch/x86/kernel/crash.c @@ -56,7 +56,9 @@ struct crash_memmap_data { */ crash_vmclear_fn __rcu *crash_vmclear_loaded_vmcss = NULL; EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(crash_vmclear_loaded_vmcss); -unsigned long crash_zero_bytes; +#ifdef CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE +static unsigned long crash_zero_bytes; +#endif static inline void cpu_crash_vmclear_loaded_vmcss(void) { -- 1.8.3.1 _______________________________________________ kexec mailing list kexec@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/kexec
