Description gent_bz 2007-06-15 01:40:31 UTC 
WARNING: vmlinux: 'kd_mksound' exported twice. Previous export was in vmlinux

kd_mksound appears to be exported in both arch/powerpc/kernel/ppc_ksyms.c and drivers/char/keyboard.c

It is unclear to me which one needs to be changed, but removing EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(kd_mksound) from drivers/char/keyboard.c eliminates the warning (and might also work...)

This is fixed in more recent kernels. Am I right in saying that this warning is not actually causing any problems? If I'm wrong, please reopen this bug and we'll backport the fix.

Ok.

None that I can see.  If it's fixed in newer kernels I'm happy, thanks.
