Something like: >+ static struct pci_device_id applicom_pci_tbl[] __moduseddata = { > { PCI_VENDOR_ID_APPLICOM, PCI_DEVICE_ID_APPLICOM_PCIGENERIC, > PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, 0 }, > @@ -74,6 +75,8 @@ static struct pci_device_id applicom_pci_tbl[] = { > PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, 0 }, > { 0 } > }; where we have: #ifdef MODULE #define __moduseddata __section(.module.data) #define __modusedconst __section(.module.rodata) #define __modused __section(.module.text) #else #define __moduseddata __section(.discard.data) #define __modusedconst __section(.discard.rodata) #define __modused __section(.discard.text) #endif And we can then discard the symbols as we do for __initdata today. Another much simpler solution could be to say: >static struct pci_device_id applicom_pci_tbl[] __used = { > { PCI_VENDOR_ID_APPLICOM, PCI_DEVICE_ID_APPLICOM_PCIGENERIC, > PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, 0 }, > @@ -74,6 +75,8 @@ static struct pci_device_id applicom_pci_tbl[] = { > PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, 0 }, > { 0 } > }; But we would then in the built-in case waste some memory. > index 905d1f5..2009dc9 100644 > --- a/drivers/char/synclink.c > +++ b/drivers/char/synclink.c > @@ -897,7 +897,9 @@ static char *driver_version = "$Revision: 4.38 $"; > > static int synclink_init_one (struct pci_dev *dev, > const struct pci_device_id *ent); > +#if defined(MODULE) || defined(CONFIG_HOTPLUG) > static void synclink_remove_one (struct pci_dev *dev); > +#endif > > static struct pci_device_id synclink_pci_tbl[] = { > { PCI_VENDOR_ID_MICROGATE, PCI_DEVICE_ID_MICROGATE_USC, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, }, > @@ -8166,7 +8168,8 @@ static int __devinit synclink_init_one (struct pci_dev *dev, > return 0; > } > > +#if defined(MODULE) || defined(CONFIG_HOTPLUG) > static void __devexit synclink_remove_one (struct pci_dev *dev) > { > } > - > +#endif This function is properly annotated and __devexit_p() is used so it should not generate a warning. The root casue is that __devexit is defined to nothing in the #ifdef CONFIG_HOTPLUG case - it should have been defined as #define __devexit __used if MODULE was not defined. This is the better fix for these kind of warnings. For the latter I have fixed this in kbuild.git. So we are only left with the DEVICE_MOD_TABLE issue. Sam
