The patch titled export-acpi_check_resource_conflict-fix has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was export-acpi_check_resource_conflict-fix.patch This patch was dropped because it was folded into export-acpi_check_resource_conflict.patch ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: export-acpi_check_resource_conflict-fix From: Jean Delvare <jdelvare@xxxxxxx> Le mardi 06 novembre 2007, Kamalesh Babulal a écrit : > Hi Andrew, > > The kernel build fails, on powerpc while compiling the kernel with allyesconfig option > > drivers/hwmon/w83627hf.c:1631: error: implicit declaration of function `acpi_check_resource_conflict' > make[2]: *** [drivers/hwmon/w83627hf.o] Error 1 > make[1]: *** [drivers/hwmon] Error 2 > make: *** [drivers] Error 2 > CC fs/xfs/xfs_error.o > drivers/hwmon/w83627hf.c:1631: error: implicit declaration of function `acpi_check_resource_conflict' > make[2]: *** [drivers/hwmon/w83627hf.o] Error 1 > make[1]: *** [drivers/hwmon] Error 2 > make: *** [drivers] Error 2 > drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-ali1535.c:163: error: implicit declaration of function `acpi_check_region' > make[3]: *** [drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-ali1535.o] Error 1 > make[2]: *** [drivers/i2c/busses] Error 2 > make[1]: *** [drivers/i2c] Error 2 > drivers/hwmon/dme1737.c:2231: error: implicit declaration of function `acpi_check_resource_conflict' > make[2]: *** [drivers/hwmon/dme1737.o] Error 1 > make[1]: *** [drivers/hwmon] Error 2 > make: *** [drivers] Error 2 Odd.

There's an #else after that, and the functions are defined as inlines doing nothing in the non-ACPI case. The code looks OK to me, but I can reproduce the problem on x86_64 with CONFIG_ACPI=n. Aha, I see it now, there are nested #ifdef CONFIG_ACPI in acpi.h, so the inner one is a no-op (and its #else counterpart is never evaluated.) That's pretty confusing, I'll send a patch fixing this. In the meantime, here's a quick fix so that you can go on testing the mm snapshot. Apply this at the top of the series: Fix the <linux/acpi.h> breakage for CONFIG_ACPI=n.
