Subject: section mismatch with a platform driver
Date: Mon, 13 Oct 2008 10:19:05 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <912ec82a0810130119g795c91ffr1083d7e8459a6db1@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi all,

I am working on a platform driver, and getting the following warning:

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x44bc4): Section mismatch: reference to
.init.text:my_probe_func (between 'my_platform_struct' and
'debug_level_variable')

If I understand correctly, it shouts about my probe function being
referenced from the data section:

static struct platform_driver my_platform_struct = {
	.probe		= my_probe,
	.remove		= my_remove,
	.suspend	= my_suspend,
	.resume		= my_resume,
	.driver		= {
		.name = DRIVER_NAME,
	},
};

Why is that a problem ? Should I do something different ? Isn't my
platform_driver struct completely standard ?

Thank You !
Pnesh
