Subject: mptscsih.c: discarded in section `.exit.text' from drivers/built-in.o
Date: Thu, 05 Feb 2004 12:53:18 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1076010797.3744.84.camel@patsy.fc.hp.com> (raw)
The MPT Fusion driver seems to have developed a linker problem on
ia64. The latest linux-2.5 bk tree gives me the following:
LD .tmp_vmlinux1
local symbol 0: discarded in section `.exit.text' from drivers/built-in.o
make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1
Running the reference discard checking tool:
$ ~/reference_discarded.pl
Finding objects, 858 objects, ignoring 0 module(s)
Finding conglomerates, ignoring 81 conglomerate(s)
Scanning objects
Error: ./drivers/message/fusion/mptscsih.o .init.text refers to 00000000000001e2 PCREL21B .exit.text
Done
And, sure enough, if I remove the __exits from mptscsih_exit() I get a
linkable kernel. Looks like the __exits ought to be removed. Thanks,
Alex
