From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@xxxxxxxx> Tobias has reported following section mismatches introduced by "mm, memory_hotplug: do not associate hotadded memory to zones until online". WARNING: mm/built-in.o(.text+0x5a1c2): Section mismatch in reference from the function move_pfn_range_to_zone() to the function .meminit.text:memmap_init_zone() The function move_pfn_range_to_zone() references the function __meminit memmap_init_zone(). This is often because move_pfn_range_to_zone lacks a __meminit annotation or the annotation of memmap_init_zone is wrong. WARNING: mm/built-in.o(.text+0x5a25b): Section mismatch in reference from the function move_pfn_range_to_zone() to the function .meminit.text:init_currently_empty_zone() The function move_pfn_range_to_zone() references the function __meminit init_currently_empty_zone(). This is often because move_pfn_range_to_zone lacks a __meminit annotation or the annotation of init_currently_empty_zone is wrong. WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x188aa2): Section mismatch in reference from the function move_pfn_range_to_zone() to the function .meminit.text:memmap_init_zone() The function move_pfn_range_to_zone() references the function __meminit memmap_init_zone(). This is often because move_pfn_range_to_zone lacks a __meminit annotation or the annotation of memmap_init_zone is wrong. WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x188b3b): Section mismatch in reference from the function move_pfn_range_to_zone() to the function .meminit.text:init_currently_empty_zone() The function move_pfn_range_to_zone() references the function __meminit init_currently_empty_zone(). This is often because move_pfn_range_to_zone lacks a __meminit annotation or the annotation of init_currently_empty_zone is wrong. Both memmap_init_zone and init_currently_empty_zone are marked __meminit but move_pfn_range_to_zone is used outside of __meminit sections (e.g. devm_memremap_pages) so we have to hide it from the checker by __ref annotation.
