Due to the __weak annotation in the forward declaration of the 'pcibios_get_phb_of_node' function GCC will emit a weak symbol for this functions even if the actual implementation does not use the weak attribute. If an architecture tries to override the function by providing its own implementation there will be multiple weak symbols with the same name in the object files. When the kernel is linked from the object files the linking order determines which implementation will be used in the final image. On x86 and on powerpc the architecture specific version gets used: $ readelf -s arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o drivers/pci/built-in.o \ vmlinux.o | grep pcibios_get_phb_of_node 3338: 00029b80 86 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 1 pcibios_get_phb_of_node 1701: 00012710 77 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 1 pcibios_get_phb_of_node 52072: 0002a170 86 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 1 pcibios_get_phb_of_node $ $ powerpc-openwrt-linux-uclibc-readelf -s arch/powerpc/kernel/built-in.o \ drivers/pci/built-in.o vmlinux.o | grep pcibios_get_phb_of_node 1001: 0000cbb8 12 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 1 pcibios_get_phb_of_node 1484: 0001471c 88 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 1 pcibios_get_phb_of_node 28652: 0000d6f8 12 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 1 pcibios_get_phb_of_node $ However on MIPS, the linker puts the default implementation into the final image: $ mipsel-openwrt-linux-readelf -s arch/mips/pci/built-in.o \ drivers/pci/built-in.o vmlinux.o | grep pcibios_get_phb_of_node 86: 0000046c 12 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 2 pcibios_get_phb_of_node 1430: 00012e2c 104 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 2 pcibios_get_phb_of_node 31898: 0017e4ec 104 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 2 pcibios_get_phb_of_node $ Rename the default implementation and remove the __weak annotation of that. This ensures that there will be no multiple weak symbols with the same name in the object files. In order to keep the expected behaviour, call the architecture specific function if the weak symbol is resolved. Also move the renamed function to the top instead of adding a new forward declaration for that. Signed-off-by: Gabor Juhos <juhosg@xxxxxxxxxxx> --- Notes: Unfortunately I'm not a binutils/gcc expert, so I don't know if this is the expected behaviour of those or not. Removing the __weak annotation from the forward declaration of 'pcibios_get_phb_of_node' in 'include/linux/pci.h' also fixes the problem. The microblaze architecture also provides its own implementation. The behaviour of that is not tested but I assume that the linker chooses the arch specific implementation on that as well similarly to the x86/powerpc. The MIPS version is implemented in the followup patch. Removing the __weak annotation from the forward declaration of 'pcibios_get_phb_of_node' in 'include/linux/pci.h' also fixes the problem. -Gabor --- drivers/pci/of.c | 41 +++++++++++++++++++++++------------------ 1 file changed, 23 insertions(+), 18 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/pci/of.c b/drivers/pci/of.c index f092993..5794840 100644 --- a/drivers/pci/of.c +++ b/drivers/pci/of.c @@ -15,10 +15,32 @@ #include <linux/of_pci.h> #include "pci.h" +static struct device_node *__pcibios_get_phb_of_node(struct pci_bus *bus) +{ + /* This should only be called for PHBs */ + if (WARN_ON(bus->self || bus->parent)) + return NULL; + + if (pcibios_get_phb_of_node) + return pcibios_get_phb_of_node(bus); + + /* Look for a node pointer in either the intermediary device we + * create above the root bus or it's own parent.
