Description Alan Hourihane 2005-12-22 02:34:36 UTC 
Building the kernel fails to build the impactsr.c and odyssey.c drivers because it's trying to include "platform_device.h" which no longer exists.

Changing this include from this...

#include <linux/platform_device.h>

to this

#include <linux/device.h>

in both of the above files fixes the build problem.

Blasted upstream changes...

Will be fixed in a soon-to-be-released-2.6.14.5 mips-sources.  Figures I miss this one.

2.6.14.5 is in CVS.  Should fix this little quirk.  It'll hit the mirrors in ~45min-1hr.

There doesn't appear to be a mips-sources-2.6.14.5.ebuild yet...

Sure there is, I've got it from a sync sometime yesterday:

*mips-sources-2.6.14.5 (03 Jan 2006)

  03 Jan 2006; Joshua Kinard <kumba@gentoo.org>
  -mips-sources-2.6.14.4.ebuild, +mips-sources-2.6.14.5.ebuild:
  Bump to 2.6.14.5 to plug a number of security holes, plug a compile error on
  IP30 (Bug #116368), and roll in a new IP28 patchset that fixes some IMpactSR
  DMA issues.

mmm. just synced now and it's not there. I guess I'll go and check with another mirror site. Thanks.
