Subject: linux-next: build failure in Linus' tree
Date: Fri, 20 May 2011 11:15:16 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110520111516.784c0c9c.sfr@canb.auug.org.au> (raw)
Hi Linus,
With just Linus' tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc ppc64_defconfig)
failed like this:
In file included from arch/powerpc/mm/fault.c:18:
include/linux/signal.h:239: error: 'struct task_struct' declared inside parameter list
include/linux/signal.h:239: error: its scope is only this definition or declaration, which is probably not what you want
include/linux/signal.h:240: error: 'struct task_struct' declared inside parameter list
include/linux/signal.h:241: error: 'struct task_struct' declared inside parameter list
include/linux/signal.h:250: error: 'struct task_struct' declared inside parameter list
include/linux/signal.h:254: error: 'struct task_struct' declared inside parameter list
cc1: warnings being treated as errors
and so on ...
reverting commit e66eed651fd1 ("list: remove prefetching from regular
list iterators"). This is, of course, why we like to put stuff into
linux-next before it goes into your tree :-)
I have applied this patch for today:
