hi:
In kernel code . some function is defined by
__attribute__((__section__(".initcall" level ".init")))
what does this do ?
It puts the address of the function in a linker section named .initcallX.init where X is replaced by the level.
why ".initcall" and level do not connect together with ## ? As I know , precompiler use ## to connect two strings Thanks!
These functions are called in order to initialize various subsystems and drivers during kernel bootup.
