Hi Andrew, After merging the akpm-current tree, today's linux-next build (and a few earlier ones) (powerpc allnoconfig (and many others)) failed like this: lib/vsprintf.c:160:2: error: initializer element is not constant lib/vsprintf.c:160:2: error: (near initialization for 'decpair[0]') lib/vsprintf.c:160:2: error: initializer element is not constant lib/vsprintf.c:160:2: error: (near initialization for 'decpair[1]') lib/vsprintf.c:160:2: error: initializer element is not constant lib/vsprintf.c:160:2: error: (near initialization for 'decpair[2]') lib/vsprintf.c:160:2: error: initializer element is not constant lib/vsprintf.c:160:2: error: (near initialization for 'decpair[3]') lib/vsprintf.c:160:2: error: initializer element is not constant and more ... basically any big endian build of code using __swabxx or cpu_to_lexx in initailisers (in the above case cpu_to_le16()). Caused (presumably) by commit eeee46ed3cda ("byteswap: try to avoid __builtin_constant_p gcc bug") This is a buyild using gcc 4.6.3. I have revreted that commit for today to see if it fixes the overnight builds. -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell -- 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
