Vivek Goyal 4a5d107a9a [PATCH] i386: cpu hotplug/smpboot misc MODPOST warning fixes ... o Misc smpboot/cpu hotplug path cleanups. I did those to supress the warnings generated by MODPOST. These warnings are visible only if CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. o CONFIG_RELOCATABLE compiles the kernel with --emit-relocs option. This option retains relocation information in vmlinux file and MODPOST is quick to spit out "Section mismatch" warnings. o This patch fixes some of those warnings. Many of the functions in smpboot case are __devinit type and they in turn accesses text/data which if of type __cpuinit. Now if CONFIG_HOTPLUG=y and CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n then we end up in cases where a function in .text segment is calling another function in .init.text segment and MODPOST emits warning. WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:identify_cpu from .text between 'smp_store_cpu_info' (at offset 0xc011020d) and 'do_boot_cpu' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:init_gdt from .text between 'do_boot_cpu' (at offset 0xc01102ca) and '__cpu_up' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:print_cpu_info from .text between 'do_boot_cpu' (at offset 0xc01105d0) and '__cpu_up' o It also fixes the issues where CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y and start_secondary() is calling smp_callin() which in-turn calls synchronize_tsc_ap() which is of type __init. This should have meant broken CPU hotplug. WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from .text between 'start_secondary' (at offset 0xc011603f) and 'initialize_secondary' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from .text between 'MP_processor_info' (at offset 0xc0116a4f) and 'mp_register_lapic' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from .text between 'MP_processor_info' (at offset 0xc0116a4f) and 'mp_register_lapic' Signed-off-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@in.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>		18 years ago
