Hi Andrew, After merging the akpm tree, today's linux-next build (sparc defconfig) failed like this: mm/slab.c: In function 'slab_alloc': mm/slab.c:3260:4: error: implicit declaration of function 'slab_free' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] slab_free(cachep, objp); ^ mm/slab.c: At top level: mm/slab.c:3534:29: warning: conflicting types for 'slab_free' static __always_inline void slab_free(struct kmem_cache *cachep, void *objp) ^ mm/slab.c:3534:29: error: static declaration of 'slab_free' follows non-static declaration mm/slab.c:3260:4: note: previous implicit declaration of 'slab_free' was here slab_free(cachep, objp); ^ I am not sure what caused this, but it is something in the akpm-current or akpm trees (possibly interacting with something else). I have just left this for today. -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@canb.auug.org.au
