[PATCH 4.14 08/14] x86/process: Define cpu_tss_rw in same section as declaration

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulniers@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 2fd9c41aea47f4ad071accf94b94f94f2c4d31eb upstream.

cpu_tss_rw is declared with DECLARE_PER_CPU_PAGE_ALIGNED
but then defined with DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_ALIGNED
leading to section mismatch warnings.

Use DEFINE_PER_CPU_PAGE_ALIGNED consistently. This is necessary because
it's mapped to the cpu entry area and must be page aligned.
