Eg: __weak for __attribute__((weak)). I've taken up the job of cleaning these attributes all over the kernel. Currently my patches for cleanup of all files under /kernel and /block are already done and in the linux-next tree. In the following patch I've replaced all aforementioned instances under the /mm directory in the kernel source. ============================================================== Gideon Israel Dsouza (1): mm: use macros from compiler.h instead of __attribute__((...)) mm/hugetlb.c | 3 ++- mm/nommu.c | 3 ++- mm/sparse.c | 4 +++- mm/util.c | 5 +++-- mm/vmalloc.c | 4 +++- 5 files changed, 13 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) -- 1.8.5.3
