The patch titled Convert some functions to __init to avoid MODPOST warnings has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was convert-some-functions-to-__init-to-avoid-modpost-warnings.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: Convert some functions to __init to avoid MODPOST warnings From: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@xxxxxxxxxx> o Some functions which should have been in init sections as they are called only once. Put them in init sections. Otherwise MODPOST generates warning as these functions are placed in .text and they end up accessing something in init sections. WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:migration_init from .text between 'do_pre_smp_initcalls' (at offset 0xc01000d1) and 'run_init_process' Signed-off-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxx> --- arch/i386/kernel/setup.c | 2 +- init/main.c | 2 +- 2 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff -puN arch/i386/kernel/setup.c~convert-some-functions-to-__init-to-avoid-modpost-warnings arch/i386/kernel/setup.c --- a/arch/i386/kernel/setup.c~convert-some-functions-to-__init-to-avoid-modpost-warnings +++ a/arch/i386/kernel/setup.c @@ -496,7 +496,7 @@ static void set_mca_bus(int x) { } #endif /* Overridden in paravirt.c if CONFIG_PARAVIRT */ -char * __attribute__((weak)) memory_setup(void) +char * __init __attribute__((weak)) memory_setup(void) { return machine_specific_memory_setup(); } diff -puN init/main.c~convert-some-functions-to-__init-to-avoid-modpost-warnings init/main.c --- a/init/main.c~convert-some-functions-to-__init-to-avoid-modpost-warnings +++ a/init/main.c @@ -703,7 +703,7 @@ static void __init do_basic_setup(void) do_initcalls(); } -static void do_pre_smp_initcalls(void) +static void __init do_pre_smp_initcalls(void) { extern int spawn_ksoftirqd(void); #ifdef CONFIG_SMP _ Patches currently in -mm which might be from vgoyal@xxxxxxxxxx are change-cpu_up-and-co-from-__devinit-to-__cpuinit.patch kdump-documentation-update-for-2620.patch pci-quirks-modpost-warning-fix.patch i386-sched_clock-using-init-data-tsc_disable-fix.patch make-noirqdebug_setup-function-non-init-to-fix-modpost-warning.patch scsi-megaraid_mmmbox-init-fix-for-kdump.patch clockevents-i386-drivers.patch - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe mm-commits" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
