Nvidia kernel giving strange warning

[compucoder]

My Dmesg is showing a strange error when it loads m nvidia kernel module.

I get 2 warnings of missing symbols
add_preempt_count and sub_preempt count.

I just started getting this after recompiling my kernel.

I thought I would just reinstall nvidia-kernel and see if it goes away but the actual install itself gave the exact same 2 warnings.

I am using ~x86 sources for nvidia and almost everything else actually. Just to note, everything seems to be working ok from what I can tell. GLX loads ok. No performance loss. Just want to see if I should do something here. I see it is mentioning preempt - I do have preemptible kernel checked in the kernel.

Thanks.

That could be the problem. Nvidia is looking into your kernel and cannot find that symbols because they are part of the kernel preemptivity module. I don't think that this is bad in any way, it just shows that you don't have that symbols into your current kernel.

strange that they seemed to be there before I recompiled my kernel. I even recompiled the exact same version just added in some usb module support for my flash stick

If it isn't causing any problems then I'll wait till I upgrade the kernel in a few weeks(after a couple new releases ) and see if it still exists.
