I'm doing 'experimental' builds of PPC systems built with NPTL / 2.6.3 headers / gcc-3.3.3 this weekend. I've filed several other bugs, this one looks just like bug 41856, but I can't make it go away, so I'm just going to remove hdparm from my profile and run without it (I'm SCSI anyway). Observed when merging hdparm 5.4 and 5.5 against linux-headers-2.6.3 systems. Looks like its really an issue of hdparm. I've already fired an email to the maintainer of 'hdparm', Mark Lord. BTW, am I being a jerk by filing bugs for this stuff? I figured it was actually helping since not too many folks are testing 'bleeding edge' builds on PPC. Tell me to 'cram it and wait' if you'd like. ### gcc -O2 -W -Wall -Wbad-function-cast -Wcast-align -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-qual -Wshadow -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -fkeep-inline-functions -Wwrite-strings -Waggregate-return -Wnested-externs -Wtrigraphs -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -mcpu=750 -c -o identify.o identify.c In file included from /usr/include/linux/byteorder/big_endian.h:11, from /usr/include/asm/byteorder.h:74, from hdparm.c:23: /usr/include/linux/byteorder/swab.h:133: error: syntax error before "__u16" /usr/include/linux/byteorder/swab.h:146: error: syntax error before "__u32" /usr/include/linux/byteorder/swab.h:160: error: syntax error before "__u64" make: *** [hdparm.o] Error 1 make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... !!!

no, we want this bug reports, we just want bug reports that havent already been fixed just like i said in comment #1 on Bug 42535, this has been fixed, make sure you're using the latest headers i just emerged hdparm-5.5 on my system without any problems and i'm using linux-headers-2.6.3-r1
I've revisited my build system and found a 'polluted' stage1 tarball. I'm back on track, and I thought I'd let you know that hdparm just compiled fine on the new build.
