Subject: [PATCH] x86/alternative: move apply_relocation() out of init section
Date: Mon, 4 Dec 2023 08:28:41 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231204072856.1033621-1-arnd@kernel.org> (raw)
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
This function is now called from a few places that are no __init_or_module,
resulting a link time warning:
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux: section mismatch in reference: patch_dest+0x8a (section: .text) -> apply_relocation (section: .init.text)
Remove the annotation here.
Fixes: 17bce3b2ae2d ("x86/callthunks: Handle %rip-relative relocations in call thunk template")
Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
---
Not entire sure about this one, it does address the warning, but it
might be possible to find and change all the callers instead if they
fit the __init_or_module pattern.
