Hi Chris, Today's linux-next build (powerpc allyesconfig) failed like this: fs/btrfs/locking.c: In function 'btrfs_path_lock_waiting': fs/btrfs/locking.c:254: error: implicit declaration of function '__raw_spin_is_contended' CONFIG_PREEMPT is not set (since CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE takes precedence over it) which means that CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK is not set (since it depends on CONFIG_PREEMPT - at least on powerpc). So spin_is_contended() is __raw_spin_is_contended(). __raw_spin_is_contended is only defined for UP, MIPS and X86. Commit b4ce94de9b4d64e8ab3cf155d13653c666e22b9b ("Btrfs: Change btree locking to use explicit blocking points") from Linus' tree added the first generic non CONFIG_PREEMPT usage via a call to spin_is_contended(). I got past this for today by building the PowerPC allyesconfig without btrfs. -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.canb.auug.org.au/~sfr/
