[PATCH 04/28] ACPICA: gcc-specific: Fix possible issue with the strchr function.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Bob Moore <robert.moore@xxxxxxxxx>

Some versions of gcc implement strchr via a macro, which either
contains bugs or can provoke a bug in the compiler. This change
fixes a possible compile-time error when using this function.
The problem is usually seen when compiling the getopt.c module.
