Kernel version 3.6.0-rc2, and probably -rc1 as well. I get the following compile-time error on alpha architecture: (...) CC net/core/sock.o net/core/sock.c:274:36: error: initializer element is not constant net/core/sock.c:274:36: error: (near initialization for "memalloc_socks") net/core/sock.c:274:36: error: initializer element is not constant make[2]: *** [net/core/sock.o] Error 1 make[1]: *** [net/core] Error 2 make: *** [net] Error 2 Compiler is gcc-4.6.3. Line 274 of net/core/sock.c is struct static_key memalloc_socks = STATIC_KEY_INIT_FALSE; which made its first appearance in 3.6.0-rc1. --Bob -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-alpha" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
