Subject: [PATCH] modpost warnings with external modules w/o modversions
Date: Mon, 19 Jul 2004 14:51:06 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040719125106.GA29131@convergence.de> (raw)
Hi,
when building external modules (DVB drivers in this case)
for a kernel without CONFIG_MODVERSIONS I get a number of:
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.8-rc1'
Building modules, stage 2.
MODPOST
*** Warning: "dvb_unregister_frontend_new" [.../dvb-kernel/build-2.6/ves1x93.ko] has no CRC!
I believe that there is a small bug in modpost.c which the
patch below attempts to fix.
