Hi Jeff,

I thought so too. This is to fix below warnings seen when building MHI as a
MODULE:

WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_LICENSE() in drivers/bus/mhi/core/main.o
WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_LICENSE() in drivers/bus/mhi/core/pm.o
WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_LICENSE() in drivers/bus/mhi/core/boot.o

We've only had those in init.c so far.


Can you please test below diff to see if it fixes the warning?

diff --git a/drivers/bus/mhi/core/Makefile b/drivers/bus/mhi/core/Makefile
index 66e2700c9032..bc1469778cf8 100644
--- a/drivers/bus/mhi/core/Makefile
+++ b/drivers/bus/mhi/core/Makefile
@@ -1,3 +1,3 @@
-obj-$(CONFIG_MHI_BUS) := mhi.o
+obj-$(CONFIG_MHI_BUS) += mhi.o

mhi-y := init.o main.o pm.o boot.o

Hi Mani,

Yes I was just about to reply. I realized it was due to the Makefile change. I have fixed and
tested it. The warnings are gone now. I will remove the patch.

Thanks,
Bhaumik
