Subject: + mm-make-setpage_address-static-inline-if-want_page_virtual.patch added to -mm tree To: geert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx,linux@xxxxxxxxxxxx,mst@xxxxxxxxxx From: akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Wed, 15 Jan 2014 12:53:57 -0800 The patch titled Subject: mm: Make {,set}page_address() static inline if WANT_PAGE_VIRTUAL has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is mm-make-setpage_address-static-inline-if-want_page_virtual.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/mm-make-setpage_address-static-inline-if-want_page_virtual.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/mm-make-setpage_address-static-inline-if-want_page_virtual.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm: Make {,set}page_address() static inline if WANT_PAGE_VIRTUAL {,set}page_address() are macros if WANT_PAGE_VIRTUAL. If !WANT_PAGE_VIRTUAL, they're plain C functions. If someone calls them with a void *, this pointer is auto-converted to struct page * if !WANT_PAGE_VIRTUAL, but causes a build failure on architectures using WANT_PAGE_VIRTUAL (arc, m68k and sparc): drivers/md/bcache/bset.c: In function `__btree_sort': drivers/md/bcache/bset.c:1190: warning: dereferencing `void *' pointer drivers/md/bcache/bset.c:1190: error: request for member `virtual' in something not a structure or union Convert them to static inline functions to fix this. There are already plenty of users of struct page members inside <linux/mm.h>, so there's no reason to keep them as macros.
