Hi Al, Today's linux-next build (powerpc ppc64_defconfig) failed like this: fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_export.c: In function 'xfs_fs_get_parent': fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_export.c:201: error: incompatible type for argument 1 of 'd_obtain_alias' Due to commit 8ee6b8fff20962d17a008e230006e48c7f79ade4 ("[PATCH] switch all filesystems over to d_obtain_alias") from the vfs tree interacting with commit 7836dda725873a5ce05d216295a452f16ccaab72 ("[XFS] Combine the XFS and Linux inodes") from the xfs tree. I must admit I am wondering why I am only seeing this error at this late stage (the xfs commit is dated October 17) ... I fixed it up by applying the following patch (which may be incorrect). -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.canb.auug.org.au/~sfr/ From: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 20 Oct 2008 17:16:00 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] vfs/xfs: fallout from i_vnode change Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_export.c | 2 +- 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_export.c b/fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_export.c index 263027f..dd71e86 100644 --- a/fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_export.c +++ b/fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_export.c @@ -198,7 +198,7 @@ xfs_fs_get_parent( if (unlikely(error)) return ERR_PTR(-error); - return d_obtain_alias(cip->i_vnode); + return d_obtain_alias(&cip->i_vnode); } const struct export_operations xfs_export_operations = { -- 1.5.6.5 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-next" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
