Subject: linux-2.5.18: fs/hfs/inode.c: PATCH to fix compilation error
Date: Wed, 29 May 2002 18:31:58 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20020530013158.2DCBE3DF2@abruzzo.augart.com> (raw)

Subject: Patch to fix compilation error in linux-2.5.18/fs/hfs/inode.c

This patch fixes a compilation error in linux-2.5.18/fs/hfs/inode.c,
where gcc 2.95.3 complains that it does not have a complete definition
for `struct page' in hfs_prepare_write().   The exact error message
given is:

  inode.c: In function `hfs_prepare_write':
  inode.c:242: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type

To give credit where due, after I fixed this bug I found that
suggested fixes have also been sent in by 
Alexander Viro <viro@math.psu.edu>, by Christoph Hellwig
<hch@infradead.org>, and by Jan Harkes <jaharkes@cs.cmu.edu>

The compilation problem has already been reported by Brad Littlejohn
<tyketto@wizard.com> and John Weber <john.weber@linuxhq.com>.
