From: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@xxxxxxxxxx> Consolidate locations that print a section whitelist into calls to print_section_list(). Fix print_section_list() so that it does not print a trailing comma & space: If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __init* or __refdata (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console, becomes: If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __init* or __refdata (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@xxxxxxxxxx> --- scripts/mod/modpost.c | 23 +++++++++++++++-------- 1 file changed, 15 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) --- linux-next-20110315.orig/scripts/mod/modpost.c +++ linux-next-20110315/scripts/mod/modpost.c @@ -1248,6 +1248,19 @@ static int is_function(Elf_Sym *sym) return -1; } +static void print_section_list(const char * const list[20]) +{ + const char *const *s = list; + + while (*s) { + fprintf(stderr, "%s", *s); + s++; + if (*s) + fprintf(stderr, ", "); + } + fprintf(stderr, "\n"); +} + /* * Print a warning about a section mismatch. * Try to find symbols near it so user can find it. @@ -1304,7 +1317,6 @@ static void report_sec_mismatch(const ch break; case DATA_TO_ANY_INIT: { prl_to = sec2annotation(tosec); - const char *const *s = mismatch->symbol_white_list; fprintf(stderr, "The variable %s references\n" "the %s %s%s%s\n" @@ -1312,9 +1324,7 @@ static void report_sec_mismatch(const ch "variable with __init* or __refdata (see linux/init.h) " "or name the variable:\n", fromsym, to, prl_to, tosym, to_p); - while (*s) - fprintf(stderr, "%s, ", *s++); - fprintf(stderr, "\n"); + print_section_list(mismatch->symbol_white_list); free(prl_to); break; } @@ -1329,7 +1339,6 @@ static void report_sec_mismatch(const ch break; case DATA_TO_ANY_EXIT: { prl_to = sec2annotation(tosec); - const char *const *s = mismatch->symbol_white_list; fprintf(stderr, "The variable %s references\n" "the %s %s%s%s\n" @@ -1337,9 +1346,7 @@ static void report_sec_mismatch(const ch "variable with __exit* (see linux/init.h) or " "name the variable:\n", fromsym, to, prl_to, tosym, to_p); - while (*s) - fprintf(stderr, "%s, ", *s++); - fprintf(stderr, "\n"); + print_section_list(mismatch->symbol_white_list); free(prl_to); break; } -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kbuild" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
