• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

If I enable XFS with linux-2.4.23-aa1, I got following error during compile:

        /usr/src/linux-2.4.23-aa1/arch/i386/lib/lib.a
/usr/src/linux-2.4.23-aa1/lib/lib.a /usr/src/linux-2.4.23-aa1/arch/i386/lib/lib.a \
        --end-group \
        -o vmlinux
fs/fs.o(.text+0x76f0e): In function `posix_acl_xfs_to_xattr':

fs/fs.o(.text+0xa8828): In function `xfs_dir_shortform_getdents':

make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1

qsort.o is not included in fs/xfs/support/Makefile, is that ok?

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

Same problems here and it can be fixed adding qsort.o to xfs's Makefile. Read here: http://seclists.org/lists/linux-kernel/2003/Oct/0755.html

Fixed in CVS for -r1, thanks for filing the bug, even though this is upstream...
