commit 8562043606430185cad26d085d46adcc7ad67fd1 is broken, causing: CC drivers/ide/pci/cmd64x.o CC drivers/ide/pci/hpt366.o drivers/ide/pci/hpt366.c:1428: error: hpt366_chipsets causes a section type conflict and therefore should be reverted. The problem arises because hpt366 has other data marked with __devinitdata, so the compiler tries to define the initdata section with read-write attributes at one point, and read-only attributes when encountering the const-but-devinitdata declaration: static struct hpt_info hpt36x __devinitdata = { static struct hpt_info hpt370 __devinitdata = { static struct hpt_info hpt370a __devinitdata = { ... static const struct ide_port_info hpt366_chipsets[] __devinitdata = { If we want ide_port_info to be read-only initdata, then we need __devroinitdata and __roinitdata tags. Note: it doesn't show up in cmd64x.c because that file contains no other data marked as initdata or devinitdata. -- Russell King Linux kernel 2.6 ARM Linux - http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/ maintainer of: - 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
