[PATCH] MIPS: Mark check_bugs{,_early}() as __init

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

 



After commit ac7c3e4ff401 ("compiler: enable CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING
forcibly"), a compiler may choose not to inline a function marked with
just 'inline'. If check_bugs() is not inlined into start_kernel(), which
occurs when building with clang after commit 9ea7e6b62c2b ("init: Mark
[arch_call_]rest_init() __noreturn"), modpost complains with:

  WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o: section mismatch in reference: check_bugs (section: .text) -> check_bugs32 (section: .init.text)

check_bugs() is only called from start_kernel(), which itself is marked
__init, so mark check_bugs() as __init as well to clear up the warning
and make everything work properly.

While there is currently no warning about check_bugs_early(), it could
have the same problem, as it is called from arch_setup() and calls
check_bugs64_early(), both marked __init. Mark it as __init for the same
reason as above.

NOTE: This is based on v6.3-rc7, as the issue shows up due to a patch in
the tip tree, but this appears to be an ancient issue that could have
showed up at any point (hence why no explicit Fixes tag), so I chose a
base that should allow either the MIPS or tip folks to apply this patch.

Additionally, I was tempted to remove the explicit 'inline' since the
compiler is free to do whatever it wants anyways but this is a static
function in a header so we would need to add '__maybe_unused', which is
already added with 'inline' in a normal build so I just left it alone.
