Hi Greg, Today's linux-next build (x86_64 allmodconfig) failed like this: crypto/zlib.c: In function 'zlib_compress_update': crypto/zlib.c:148: warning: initialization makes integer from pointer without a cast crypto/zlib.c:148: error: initializer element is not computable at load time crypto/zlib.c:148: error: (near initialization for 'descriptor.primary_hash') crypto/zlib.c:148: warning: excess elements in struct initializer crypto/zlib.c:148: warning: (near initialization for 'descriptor') And many more similar. This line is a pr_debug() statement, so the finger points at commit 25b67b75587d43ff3f09ad88c03c70a38372d95d ("dynamic debug: combine dprintk and dynamic printk") from the driver-core tree. The preprocessed code looks like this: static int zlib_compress_update(struct crypto_pcomp *tfm, struct comp_request *req) { int ret; struct zlib_ctx *dctx = crypto_tfm_ctx(crypto_pcomp_tfm(tfm)); struct z_stream_s *stream = &dctx->comp_stream; do { do { static struct _ddebug descriptor __attribute__((__used__)) __attribute__((section("__verbose"), aligned(8))) = { "zlib", __func__, "/scratch/sfr/next/crypto/zlib.c", "%s: " "avail_in %u, avail_out %u\n", __func__, 55, 33, 148, 0 }; if (({ int __ret = 0; if (__builtin_expect(!!((dynamic_debug_enabled & (1LL << 55)) && (dynamic_debug_enabled2 & (1LL << 33))), 0)) if (__builtin_expect(!!(descriptor.flags), 0)) __ret = 1; __ret; })) printk("<7>" "zlib" ":" "%s: " "avail_in %u, avail_out %u\n", __func__, req->avail_in, req->avail_out); } while (0); } while (0); The problem is the line: #define pr_fmt(fmt) "%s: " fmt, __func__ in crypto/zlib.c which was introduced by commit bf68e65ec9ea61e32ab71bef59aa5d24d255241f ("crypto: zlib - New zlib crypto module, using pcomp") from the crypto tree. For today, I have removed the above line from crypto/zlib.c, but something better needs to be done for tomorrow! -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@canb.auug.org.au http://www.canb.auug.org.au/~sfr/
