Can you please attach the .config? The BUILD_BUG_ON line gets expanded to: ((void)(sizeof(struct { int:-!!(WORK_CPU_LAST << WORK_STRUCT_FLAG_BITS >= 0x0UL); }))); WORK_CPU_LAST is: enum { .. WORK_CPU_NONE = 32 + 1, WORK_CPU_LAST = WORK_CPU_NONE, .. }; WORK_STRUCT_FLAG_BITS is: WORK_STRUCT_COLOR_SHIFT = 2, WORK_STRUCT_COLOR_BITS = 4, WORK_STRUCT_FLAG_BITS = WORK_STRUCT_COLOR_SHIFT + WORK_STRUCT_COLOR_BITS, which boils it down to ((void)(sizeof(struct { int:-!!(33 << 6 >= 0x0UL); }))); gcc doesn't like this construct. -- blue skies, Martin.
