Subject: [patch 5/8] initramfs: fix clang build failure
Date: Fri, 11 Dec 2020 13:36:42 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201211213642.d_d5sDaBb%akpm@linux-foundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201211133555.88407977f082963499ed343c@linux-foundation.org>

Subject: initramfs: fix clang build failure

There is only one function in init/initramfs.c that is in the .text
section, and it is marked __weak.  When building with clang-12 and the
integrated assembler, this leads to a bug with recordmcount:

./scripts/recordmcount  "init/initramfs.o"
Cannot find symbol for section 2: .text.
init/initramfs.o: failed

I'm not quite sure what exactly goes wrong, but I notice that this
function is only ever called from an __init function, and normally
inlined.  Marking it __init as well is clearly correct and it leads to
recordmcount no longer complaining.
