Subject: [PATCH -next] exit: export make_task_dead()
Date: Sat, 22 Jan 2022 17:48:34 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220122174834.6493-1-rdunlap@infradead.org> (raw)
In a config file from "kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com>" for a
different problem, this linker error was exposed when
CONFIG_IA64_MCA_RECOVERY=m.
We could either export make_task_dead() or restrict IA64_MCA_RECOVERY
to a bool Kconfig symbol instead of a tristate symbol, so go with the
EXPORT_SYMBOL() path.
Fixes this build error:
ERROR: modpost: "make_task_dead" [arch/ia64/kernel/mca_recovery.ko] undefined!
Fixes: 0e25498f8cd4 ("exit: Add and use make_task_dead.")
