I got the latest from Benny's git and ran into these warnings when building. But they don't seem to be coming from any NFS code. Should I be worried? What is a "Section mismatch"? Thanks for any help you can give a newbee like me. -=# Paul Gilliam #=- Edited typescript: [root@FC12a linux-pnfs-latest]# make CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y CHK include/linux/version.h CHK include/generated/utsrelease.h HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep ------- 8< ------- LD drivers/char/built-in.o WARNING: drivers/char/built-in.o(.data+0x4740): Section mismatch in reference from the variable hvc_con_driver to the function .init.text:hvc_console_setup() The variable hvc_con_driver references the function __init hvc_console_setup() 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, ------- 8< ------- LD [M] drivers/scsi/mpt2sas/mpt2sas.o WARNING: drivers/scsi/mpt2sas/mpt2sas.o(.text+0xc844): Section mismatch in reference from the function _scsih_pci_error_detected() to the function .devexit.text:_scsih_remove() The function _scsih_pci_error_detected() references a function in an exit section.
