Linus Torvalds 816fb4175c The "weak" attribute is commonly used for the default version of a ... function, where an architecture can override it by providing a strong version. Some header file declarations included the "weak" attribute. That's error-prone because it causes every implementation to be weak, with no strong version at all, and the linker chooses one based on link order. What we want is the "weak" attribute only on the *definition* of the default implementation. These changes remove "weak" from the declarations, leaving it on the default definitions. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQIcBAABAgAGBQJUSDD6AAoJEFmIoMA60/r8QQUP/1IYJwOZ1GfJs3mRVa8qrdlS qx0X96DOBQtPqA+fFgzuDnVWaRAsIGRYy/dHHZm4HZZW5QLsRXMrsFe9KXf/rHcu u5BXAqE7n7CPekmL9zuqNFzO7NgtF9PfnWnX/ckVWwUAhUnR36BbUxD3MPMiRhZA re1ao/hXSgrlyUOpC/Wfp6j+fzMoG4IIOwY+uKj7xWAkCQA3DUAtJr9kmIpyEz9n 2I3WVERjZ4fiZLwqrafX2hA8NbI4hD4/MkxBL9GkSOslPm8aL8QzMfj0ty5Z10rr nqc+2+kU5H5sk8dTiUp3CMBoBmOSwkvbaQ/hl10qGbKLHSFyGlHpISDgICsGC/jI x7081DkRcTJQ1UjUSa+56R9ZJDogMrTRDwMSFmV/OsGXKkW4IEaq+GoQaXMGOMW/ 3Lu5IuzyoaWTh+2zaCL2ngmnsJLlwrYF8vN5be1j6k6QsW50smnArgFGQ9zihry0 8ewyfnm7nHheu1v2+qwXphxVO7sKTDqO4R1Gxli3VUJ8CngK121Auc9Y02GNluP6 QP8zaieGTyNJ/Cxo0vy9DEm0RqLcSsncjfGG3eC2a0ruMp8Ynju2/u8QjwHPDPFo 2PX6FDjT36I+Fo5dKzK6sNIyiELeWvxqsb3yj+N57CIvZuH6/FjhvEEBcGaJ9bZ3 JQEOMXbVJ5oaNux25CRz =P4fi -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'remove-weak-declarations' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/helgaas/pci Pull weak function declaration removal from Bjorn Helgaas: "The "weak" attribute is commonly used for the default version of a function, where an architecture can override it by providing a strong version.
