+Subject: [PATCH 1/2] pci/of: remove weak annotation of
+ pcibios_get_phb_of_node
+
+Due to the __weak annotation in the forward declaration
+of the 'pcibios_get_phb_of_node' function GCC will emit
+a weak symbol for this functions even if the actual
+implementation does not use the weak attribute.
+
+If an architecture tries to override the function
+by providing its own implementation there will be
+multiple weak symbols with the same name in the
+object files. When the kernel is linked from the
+object files the linking order determines which
+implementation will be used in the final image.
+
+On x86 and on powerpc the architecture specific
+version gets used:
+
+ $ readelf -s arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o drivers/pci/built-in.o \
+ vmlinux.o | grep pcibios_get_phb_of_node
+ 3338: 00029b80 86 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 1 pcibios_get_phb_of_node
+ 1701: 00012710 77 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 1 pcibios_get_phb_of_node
+ 52072: 0002a170 86 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 1 pcibios_get_phb_of_node
+ $
+
+ $ powerpc-openwrt-linux-uclibc-readelf -s arch/powerpc/kernel/built-in.o \
+ drivers/pci/built-in.o vmlinux.o | grep pcibios_get_phb_of_node
+ 1001: 0000cbb8 12 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 1 pcibios_get_phb_of_node
+ 1484: 0001471c 88 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 1 pcibios_get_phb_of_node
+ 28652: 0000d6f8 12 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 1 pcibios_get_phb_of_node
+ $
+
+However on MIPS, the linker puts the default
+implementation into the final image:
+
+ $ mipsel-openwrt-linux-readelf -s arch/mips/pci/built-in.o \
+ drivers/pci/built-in.o vmlinux.o | grep pcibios_get_phb_of_node
+ 86: 0000046c 12 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 2 pcibios_get_phb_of_node
+ 1430: 00012e2c 104 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 2 pcibios_get_phb_of_node
+ 31898: 0017e4ec 104 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 2 pcibios_get_phb_of_node
+ $
+
+Rename the default implementation and remove the
+__weak annotation of that. This ensures that there
+will be no multiple weak symbols with the same name
+in the object files. In order to keep the expected
+behaviour, call the architecture specific function
+if the weak symbol is resolved.
+
+Also move the renamed function to the top instead
+of adding a new forward declaration for that.

+Notes:
+
+Unfortunately I'm not a binutils/gcc expert, so
+I don't know if this is the expected behaviour
+of those or not.
+
+Removing the __weak annotation from the forward
+declaration of 'pcibios_get_phb_of_node' in
+'include/linux/pci.h' also fixes the problem.
+
+The microblaze architecture also provides its own
+implementation. The behaviour of that is not tested
+but I assume that the linker chooses the arch specific
+implementation on that as well similarly to the
+x86/powerpc.
+
+The MIPS version is implemented in the followup
+patch.
+
+Removing the __weak annotation from the forward
+declaration of 'pcibios_get_phb_of_node' in
+'include/linux/pci.h' also fixes the problem.
