The reasoning is that with how you have it above, the attributes are applied to the structure. You want to apply the attributes to the declaration instead, so it should come after the variable name. So, for example: struct foo *foo __attribute__((section(".foo"))) = (void *)1; will place the "foo" variable into a section called ".foo", but: struct __attribute__((section(".foo"))) foo *foo = (void *)1; will place "foo" into the normal .data section. So, the rule with variable declarations is that the __ specifiers we have as macros in the kernel always come after the variable name being declared and nowhere else. We consider anywhere else buggy. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-samsung-soc" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

We consider anywhere else buggy. Thanks for this useful tip, Russell. There are several instances in the kernel where these attributes are used at the beginning of the variable declaration. Probably it would be useful to add this to checkpatch. Joe?

I think Russell is using the royal "We". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Majestic_plural There's no way for checkpatch to look at an __<foo> use and determine it should be before or after a variable. __scanf, __printf, __cold, etc are often place before declarations. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-samsung-soc" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

If it's not considered a bug by the community as a whole, it damn well should be. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-samsung-soc" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
