Description Craigus 2006-05-02 06:20:34 UTC

Using gentoo-sources-2.6.16-r5, I have enabled the sky2 net driver as a module and receive the messages shown below when running make && make modules_install.

I have also run a make clean and tried again.
I have tried it with both a new .config (only switching on the sky2 module compared to a fresh .config), and with my working .config from 2.6.15-r1 (which compiled sky2 cleanly using the 2.6.15-r1 sources, but failed when compiling the 2.6.16-r5 sources).

Same here. Was fine with gentoo-sources-2.6.16-r4.
If you change the call to netif_rx_reschedule, deleting the __ prefix, it compiles fine... didn't try to actually use any of the variants yet, though :)

Also the same bug with gentoo-sources-2.6.16-r5 which was made stable in x86 today.

Fixed in -r6, sorry about that
