Hi All while compiling linux kernel downloaded from kernel.org i am getting warning as given below
WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:start_kernel from .text between 'is386' (at offset
0xc1001171) and 'check_x87' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .text between 'rest_init' (at offset 0xc10013e6) and 'try_name' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from .text between 'probe_bigsmp' (at offset 0xc1002012) and 'init_apic_ldr' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:find_unisys_acpi_oem_table from .text between 'acpi_madt_oem_check' (at offset 0xc1002220) and 'enable_apic_mode' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:parse_unisys_oem from .text between 'acpi_madt_oem_check' (at offset 0xc100226d) and 'enable_apic_mode' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:setup_unisys from .text between 'acpi_madt_oem_check' (at offset 0xc1002274) and 'enable_apic_mode' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:parse_unisys_oem from .text between 'mps_oem_check' (at offset 0xc100220d) and 'acpi_madt_oem_check' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:es7000_sw_apic from .text between 'enable_apic_mode' (at offset 0xc1002284) and 'check_apicid_present' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:__alloc_bootmem from .text between 'init_gdt' (at offset

The same warnings are also being reported when I compile my external module using the above built kernel.
Is there any suggestions on how to solve this problem...?
thanks in advance.. regards
