That's not true; it explicitly does have code to parse the line markers. I'll have to investigate why it isn't working in this case. If you apply this patch, then anyone who has switched to #include rther than /include/ will get incorrect line numbers in dtc error messages. Admittedly that's a smaller population right now though. Perhaps we should just do a kernel-wide conversion though. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kbuild" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
