Here is the line in sock.i:
struct static_key memalloc_socks = ((struct static_key)

((atomic_t) { (0) }) });
The above line contains two compound literals. It also uses a
designated
initializer to initialize the field enabled. A compound
literal is not a
constant expression.
Seeing the same thing on ia64 building next-20120726. Same fix
works
for me ... so I'll steal this whole changelog and attributes.
I got the same error for alpha, the same fix applies.
Just trying this patch on Alpha against v3.6-rc1 and it leads to new
compilation errors, namely:
init/init_task.c:12: error: braced-group within expression allowed
only
inside a function
init/init_task.c:13: error: braced-group within expression allowed
only
inside a function
init/init_task.c:16: error: braced-group within expression allowed
only
inside a function
init/init_task.c:16: error: braced-group within expression allowed
only
inside a function
make[1]: *** [init/init_task.o] Error 1
Sorry! This will actually compile:
-#define ATOMIC_INIT(i) ( { (i) } )
+#define ATOMIC_INIT(i) { (i) }
Thanks, it now compiles correctly. I'm currently collecting Alpha
patches to send on to Linus so will include this one.
A similar change applied to 3.5.1 stable compiles successfully
on parisc.
Regards,
Dave
