Hi all, After merging the driver-core tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64 allmodconfig) failed like this: In file included from include/linux/dmi.h:5, from drivers/firmware/efi/embedded-firmware.c:8: drivers/firmware/efi/embedded-firmware.c:25:38: error: static declaration of 'efi_embedded_fw_list' follows non-static declaration 25 | EFI_EMBEDDED_FW_VISIBILITY LIST_HEAD(efi_embedded_fw_list); | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ include/linux/list.h:24:19: note: in definition of macro 'LIST_HEAD' 24 | struct list_head name = LIST_HEAD_INIT(name) | ^~~~ In file included from drivers/firmware/efi/embedded-firmware.c:17: drivers/firmware/efi/embedded-firmware.h:16:25: note: previous declaration of 'efi_embedded_fw_list' was here 16 | extern struct list_head efi_embedded_fw_list; | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ drivers/firmware/efi/embedded-firmware.c:26:33: error: static declaration of 'efi_embedded_fw_checked' follows non-static declaration 26 | EFI_EMBEDDED_FW_VISIBILITY bool efi_embedded_fw_checked; | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In file included from drivers/firmware/efi/embedded-firmware.c:17: drivers/firmware/efi/embedded-firmware.h:17:13: note: previous declaration of 'efi_embedded_fw_checked' was here 17 | extern bool efi_embedded_fw_checked; | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Caused by commit 2d38dbf89a06 ("test_firmware: Test platform fw loading on non-EFI systems") CONFIG_TEST_FIRMWARE=m for this build. I have used the driver-core tree from next-20200724 for today. -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell
