linux-next: scsi tree build failure

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi James,

Today's linux-next build (powerpc allyesconfig) failed like this:

drivers/scsi/fcoe/fcoe.c:982: error: __ksymtab_fcoe_fc_crc causes a section type conflict
drivers/scsi/fcoe/fcoe.c:982: error: __ksymtab_fcoe_fc_crc causes a section type conflict

Reverting commit 0c3cb56ec3321b23e9826cccf822470717be6e08 ("[SCSI] fcoe:
cleans up libfcoe.h and adds fcoe.h for fcoe module") makes the error go
away.  I have no idea why - the only clue is that the only global
declaration of fcoe_fc_crc() is removed by that commit.

Using a different compiler version (4.1.2) also fixed the problem.

I also had to revert commits 60390544fcc212e0657cf1eea639691d09651943
("[SCSI] fcoe, libfc: fix double fcoe_softc memory alloc") and
ba070644bff4390c965e99b1997f2cbec4157b46 ("[SCSI] fcoe, libfcoe: Add
support for FIP. FCoE discovery and keep-alive") since they followed the
one above.

I wonder if that function even needs to be exported as it is only used
withing the one file.
