Subject: [PATCH v2 14/15] drivers/x86: mark const init data with __initconst instead of __initdata
Date: Fri, 30 Mar 2012 22:05:04 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1333137905-13809-14-git-send-email-u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120330200358.GV15647@pengutronix.de>
As long as there is no other non-const variable marked __initdata in the
same compilation unit it doesn't hurt. If there were one however
compilation would fail with
error: $variablename causes a section type conflict
because a section containing const variables is marked read only and so
cannot contain non-const variables.
