Subject: WARNING: vmlinux.o (.PPC.EMB.apuinfo): unexpected non-allocatable section.
Date: Mon, 19 Sep 2011 15:18:00 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E77A378.3040306@freescale.com> (raw)

When trying to build a 64-bit kernel, I'm getting this warning message:

WARNING: vmlinux.o (.PPC.EMB.apuinfo): unexpected non-allocatable section.
Did you forget to use "ax"/"aw" in a .S file?
Note that for example <linux/init.h> contains
section definitions for use in .S files.

This kernel continues to compile and link, but when I try to boot it, it stops
here (this is under the hypervisor):
