Description René Rhéaume (a.k.a. repzilon, rener) 2007-10-21 02:11:47 UTC

The issue might affect other cloop and kernel combinations. I only tested using the versions mentioned in the title. GCC emits a "void value not ignored as it ought to be" error at line 817 in compressed_loop.c . The fix is trivial, replace the if (unregister_cloop_blkdev() != 0) and its printk with unregister_cloop_blkdev(); .

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge cloop
2. Watch module building stop with error "void value not ignored as it ought to be"



Expected Results:  
cloop.ko in /lib/modules/2.6.23-hardened/... and user-space utilities in /usr/bin

It also doesn't build on gentoo-sources. René, could you maybe change the Summary accordingly?

Using your patch and using the attached ebuild, I was able to build cloop.
