When building arm64 allmodconfig + ThinLTO with clang and a proposed modpost update to account for -ffuncton-sections, the following warning appears: WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o: section mismatch in reference: padata_work_init (section: .text.padata_work_init) -> padata_mt_helper (section: .init.text) WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o: section mismatch in reference: padata_work_init (section: .text.padata_work_init) -> padata_mt_helper (section: .init.text) LLVM has optimized padata_work_init() to include the address of padata_mt_helper() directly because it inlined the other call to padata_work_init() with padata_parallel_worker(), meaning the remaining uses of padata_work_init() use padata_mt_helper() as the work_fn argument. This optimization causes modpost to complain since padata_work_init() is not __init, whereas padata_mt_helper() is. Since padata_work_init() is only called from __init code when padata_mt_helper() is passed as the work_fn argument, mark padata_work_init() as __ref, which makes it clear to modpost that this scenario is okay.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
