Description Rick Altherr 2004-01-15 16:34:42 UTC 
include/asm-alpha/xor.h includes a multi-line string literal for the assembler routine.  Multi-line literals are not accepted by GCC 3.3.x.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. make mrproper
2. make menuconfig
3. configure with RAID 5 support
4. make boot

Actual Results:  
GCC fails while compiling xor.c

Expected Results:  
Kernel should have built successfully
