The patch titled alpha: don't implement PER_CPU_ATTRIBUTES has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was alpha-dont-implement-per_cpu_attributes.patch This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: alpha: don't implement PER_CPU_ATTRIBUTES From: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> The build fails due to -Werror: cc1: warnings being treated as errors In file included from include/linux/sched.h:89, from /usr/src/devel/arch/alpha/include/asm/uaccess.h:5, from arch/alpha/kernel/srm_env.c:37: include/linux/hrtimer.h:314: warning: '__used__' attribute ignored In file included from /usr/src/devel/arch/alpha/include/asm/uaccess.h:5, from arch/alpha/kernel/srm_env.c:37: include/linux/sched.h:138: warning: '__used__' attribute ignored Fixed by removing the __used from PER_CPU_ATTRIBUTES Ivan said: It was intended for suppressing the compiler warnings about "unused" static per-cpu variables, as they were only referenced inside the asm code. Now it seems to be broken with DECLARE_PER_CPU thing, so I think your patch that kills __used attribute should go in as a compile fix ASAP - we can live with a few compile warnings until the rest of percpu patchset gets merged.
