This actually causes a build failure on a sparc32 defconfig build: `rpcauth_remove_module' referenced in section `.init.text' of net/built-in.o: defined in discarded section `.exit.text' of net/built-in.o I applied the following patch for today: From: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 29 Sep 2010 14:07:07 +1000 Subject: [PATCH] sunrpc: fix up section mismatch Fixes: `rpcauth_remove_module' referenced in section `.init.text' of net/built-in.o: defined in discarded section `.exit.text' of net/built-in.o Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- include/linux/sunrpc/auth.h | 4 ++-- net/sunrpc/auth.c | 2 +- net/sunrpc/auth_generic.c | 2 +- 3 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/include/linux/sunrpc/auth.h b/include/linux/sunrpc/auth.h index 5bbc447..b202475 100644 --- a/include/linux/sunrpc/auth.h +++ b/include/linux/sunrpc/auth.h @@ -122,8 +122,8 @@ extern const struct rpc_authops authnull_ops; int __init rpc_init_authunix(void); int __init rpc_init_generic_auth(void); int __init rpcauth_init_module(void); -void __exit rpcauth_remove_module(void); -void __exit rpc_destroy_generic_auth(void); +void rpcauth_remove_module(void); +void rpc_destroy_generic_auth(void); void rpc_destroy_authunix(void); struct rpc_cred * rpc_lookup_cred(void); diff --git a/net/sunrpc/auth.c b/net/sunrpc/auth.c index e9eaaf7..2c0d9e6 100644 --- a/net/sunrpc/auth.c +++ b/net/sunrpc/auth.c @@ -658,7 +658,7 @@ out1: return err; } -void __exit rpcauth_remove_module(void) +void rpcauth_remove_module(void) { rpc_destroy_authunix(); rpc_destroy_generic_auth(); diff --git a/net/sunrpc/auth_generic.c b/net/sunrpc/auth_generic.c index 43162bb..e010a01 100644 --- a/net/sunrpc/auth_generic.c +++ b/net/sunrpc/auth_generic.c @@ -158,7 +158,7 @@ int __init rpc_init_generic_auth(void) return rpcauth_init_credcache(&generic_auth); } -void __exit rpc_destroy_generic_auth(void) +void rpc_destroy_generic_auth(void) { rpcauth_destroy_credcache(&generic_auth); } -- 1.7.1 -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.canb.auug.org.au/~sfr/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-next" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
