There are several problems in xfs-sources-2.4.20-r3 for gcc 3.3 that have been fixed already in gentoo-sources-2.4.20-r7. The things I am talking about are patched with gentoo-sources-2.4.20-gcc33.patch. Could someone please provide a similar patch for xfs-sources? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge xfs-sources 2. config your kernel in such a way that ide-cd.c is compiled 3. compile the kernel Actual Results: compilation fails with a complaint about the type of 'slot_tablelen', which is defined as '__u8 short' and should be '__u16'. This is just one of the things patched. Expected Results: Compiled successfully
Created attachment 19101 [details, diff] gcc 3.3 patch for xfs-sources I manually made the changes to the xfs-sources kernel source while looking at the original patch and then generated a patch from the difference between the original xfs-sources and the modified ones. Please check if it's ok. It works for me.
Thanks, in CVS...
