Here is another set of patches fixing some warning messages generated
when building the kernel when using gcc 4.6.0.
This set just focuses in on the variables warnings that are reported
to be unused. Keep in mind there are still lots more warning messages
that I'm seeing, and will try my hardest to see if I can come up with
a fix, but if things become too difficult and so forth then a bug should
be filled etc..
Given that patches 3, 4 and 5 seem to be a cases of missing error
handling, (3 and 4 in particular seem to be breaking things rather
than fixing them) in my humble opinion, I think this set needs some
work and discussion.
alright..
Justin, maybe you'd be better off posting the actual error messages
(split up by subsystem) and letting the lists discuss them, rather
than posting patches which are obviously wrong. (like the ones I've
pointed out)
yeah I'm a newbie!! alright so just file bugs for all these then.
I'm sure that everyone here is as committed as you are to eliminating
compile warnings and errors and, in my opinion, more good will come
from a healthy discussion of the warnings than maintainers NAKing your
patches out of hand.
Thanks,
NAKing is o.k. but having discussions is better..
