From: Nathan Chancellor Date: Fri, 12 Oct 2018 17:53:12 -0700 Subject: x86/time: Correct the attribute on jiffies' definition Git-commit: 53c13ba8ed39e89f21a0b98f4c8a241bb44e483d Patch-mainline: v4.19 References: bsc#1110006 Clang warns that the declaration of jiffies in include/linux/jiffies.h doesn't match the definition in arch/x86/time/kernel.c: arch/x86/kernel/time.c:29:42: warning: section does not match previous declaration [-Wsection] __visible volatile unsigned long jiffies __cacheline_aligned = INITIAL_JIFFIES; ^ ./include/linux/cache.h:49:4: note: expanded from macro '__cacheline_aligned' __section__(".data..cacheline_aligned"))) ^ ./include/linux/jiffies.h:81:31: note: previous attribute is here extern unsigned long volatile __cacheline_aligned_in_smp __jiffy_arch_data jiffies; ^ ./arch/x86/include/asm/cache.h:20:2: note: expanded from macro '__cacheline_aligned_in_smp' __page_aligned_data ^ ./include/linux/linkage.h:39:29: note: expanded from macro '__page_aligned_data' #define __page_aligned_data __section(.data..page_aligned) __aligned(PAGE_SIZE) ^ ./include/linux/compiler_attributes.h:233:56: note: expanded from macro '__section' #define __section(S) __attribute__((__section__(#S))) ^ 1 warning generated. The declaration was changed in commit 7c30f352c852 ("jiffies.h: declare jiffies and jiffies_64 with ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp") but wasn't updated here. Make them match so Clang no longer warns.
