CC drivers/ide/pci/generic.o drivers/ide/pci/generic.c:52: error: __setup_str_ide_generic_all_on causes a +section type conflict This sort of build error is becoming a regular issue. Either all or non of the elements that go into a particular section of a compilation unit need to be const. Or an error may result such as in this case if CONFIG_HOTPLUG is unset. Maybe worth a check in checkpatch.pl - but certainly gcc's interolerance is also being less than helpful here. --- drivers/ide/pci/generic.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/ide/pci/generic.c b/drivers/ide/pci/generic.c index f44d708..0047684 100644 --- a/drivers/ide/pci/generic.c +++ b/drivers/ide/pci/generic.c @@ -67,7 +67,7 @@ MODULE_PARM_DESC(all_generic_ide, "IDE generic will claim all unknown PCI IDE st .udma_mask = ATA_UDMA6, \ } -static const struct ide_port_info generic_chipsets[] __devinitdata = { +static struct ide_port_info generic_chipsets[] __devinitdata = { /* 0 */ DECLARE_GENERIC_PCI_DEV("Unknown", 0), { /* 1 */ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
