LD mm/built-in.o WARNING: mm/built-in.o(.text+0x5396d): Section mismatch in reference from the function hugetlb_register_node() to the function .init.text:hugetlb_sysfs_add_hstate() The function hugetlb_register_node() references the function __init hugetlb_sysfs_add_hstate(). This is often because hugetlb_register_node lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of hugetlb_sysfs_add_hstate is wrong. --- Signed-off-by: Rakib Mullick --- linus/mm/hugetlb.c 2009-12-18 15:52:35.000000000 +0600 +++ rakib/mm/hugetlb.c 2009-12-23 20:37:16.000000000 +0600 @@ -1515,7 +1515,7 @@ static struct attribute_group hstate_att .attrs = hstate_attrs, }; -static int __init hugetlb_sysfs_add_hstate(struct hstate *h, +static int hugetlb_sysfs_add_hstate(struct hstate *h, struct kobject *parent, struct kobject **hstate_kobjs, struct attribute_group *hstate_attr_group)
