| Code: | WARNING: drivers/acpi/processor.o - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from .text between 'acpi_processor_power_init' (at offset 0x1003) and 'acpi_safe_halt'
WARNING: drivers/ieee1394/ieee1394.o - Section mismatch: reference to .exit.text: from .smp_locks after '' (at offset 0x0)
WARNING: drivers/usb/storage/usb-storage.o - Section mismatch: reference to .exit.text: from .smp_locks after '' (at offset 0x40)

I've been having this since 2.6.17-gentoo-r4 (I believe), and again in 2.6.17-gentoo-r5.
Seems to have no negative effect, but... does anybody know anything about this? |

I recieve the processor.o warning. If you want to get rid of these warnings all you have to do is compile those features into the kernel rather than have them as modules. I don't know exactly why these warnings are appearing, but I don't think that it is anything to worry about.
