Building tilegx defconfig gets init/exit section errors in xfs.

Building tilegx defconfig gets init/exit section errors in xfs.

[Paul Gortmaker]

Hi All,

Recently the tilegx defconfig was added to the linux-next build
coverage, which exposed this.
 
LD      .tmp_vmlinux1
`xfs_qm_exit' referenced in section `.init.text' of fs/built-in.o:
 defined in discarded section `.exit.text' of fs/built-in.o
make[1]: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1

http://kisskb.ellerman.id.au/kisskb/buildresult/5941293/

It seemed odd to me, since I didn't think there was anything arch
specific in the init/exit sectioning, so I thought I'd mention it
here, just in case it hasn't been brought up before.

Thanks,
Paul.

Yep, this is fixed in the xfs master branch, and we'll be requesting a pull
ASAP.  Thanks for reporting it!  ;)

Already been reported, a patch has been provided, too. So the fix
is underway.

Thanks for reporting the problem anyway, Paul.

Cheers,

Dave.

Thanks Dave, Ben - seems gmane archive isn't easily searchable, but
the nabble one is.  I'll add this link to the linux-next triage
report until the fix appears in a linux-next build:

http://old.nabble.com/-PATCH--fs%3A-xfs%3A-fix-section-mismatch-in-linux-next-td33519270.html

And next time I'll try harder to search a useful archive.  :)

Paul.

And I'll second that with my thanks for adding tilegx to the linux-next
build coverage!  Please do continue to cc me on any issues that are exposed.
