From cb0f1a1e77e4280c3138047ad5c16d88320a1fde Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rakib Mullick Date: Fri, 9 Oct 2009 20:35:17 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] hwmon: (sht15) Fix spurious section mismatch warning Fix spurious section mismatch warnings, caused due to reference from variable sht_drivers to __devinit/__devexit functions sht15_probe()/remove(). We were warned by the following warnings: LD drivers/hwmon/built-in.o WARNING: drivers/hwmon/built-in.o(.data+0x264a0): Section mismatch in reference from the variable sht_drivers to the function .devinit.text:sht15_probe() The variable sht_drivers references the function __devinit sht15_probe() If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __init* or __refdata (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console, WARNING: drivers/hwmon/built-in.o(.data+0x264a4): Section mismatch in reference from the variable sht_drivers to the function .devexit.text:sht15_remove() The variable sht_drivers references the function __devexit sht15_remove() If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __exit* (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console, WARNING: drivers/hwmon/built-in.o(.data+0x264f0): Section mismatch in reference from the variable sht_drivers to the function .devinit.text:sht15_probe() The variable sht_drivers references the function __devinit sht15_probe() If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __init* or __refdata (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console, WARNING: drivers/hwmon/built-in.o(.data+0x264f4): Section mismatch in reference from the variable sht_drivers to the function .devexit.text:sht15_remove() The variable sht_drivers references the function __devexit sht15_remove() If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __exit* (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console, WARNING: drivers/hwmon/built-in.o(.data+0x26540): Section mismatch in reference from the variable sht_drivers to the function .devinit.text:sht15_probe() The variable sht_drivers references the function __devinit sht15_probe() If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __init* or __refdata (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console, WARNING: drivers/hwmon/built-in.o(.data+0x26544): Section mismatch in reference from the variable sht_drivers to the function .devexit.text:sht15_remove() The variable sht_drivers references the function __devexit sht15_remove() If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __exit* (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console, WARNING: drivers/hwmon/built-in.o(.data+0x26590): Section mismatch in reference from the variable sht_drivers to the function .devinit.text:sht15_probe() The variable sht_drivers references the function __devinit sht15_probe() If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __init* or __refdata (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console, Signed-off-by: Rakib Mullick Cc: Jonathan Cameron Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare --- drivers/hwmon/sht15.c | 7 ++++++- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/hwmon/sht15.c b/drivers/hwmon/sht15.c index 303c02694c3c..64bd6e5a1406 100644 --- a/drivers/hwmon/sht15.c +++ b/drivers/hwmon/sht15.c @@ -622,7 +622,12 @@ static int __devexit sht15_remove(struct platform_device *pdev) } -static struct platform_driver sht_drivers[] = { +/* + * sht_drivers simultaneously refers to __devinit and __devexit function + * which causes spurious section mismatch warning.
