From: Daniel Wagner <daniel.wagner@xxxxxxxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 4.1 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== [ Upstream commit 206fc20598157ce15597822cf01b94377e30075b ] As the function name already indicates that get_opt_bool() parses for a bool. It is not a surprise that compiler is complaining about it when -Werror=incompatible-pointer-types is used: drivers/video/fbdev/intelfb/intelfbdrv.c: In function ‘intelfb_setup’: drivers/video/fbdev/intelfb/intelfbdrv.c:353:39: error: passing argument 3 of ‘get_opt_bool’ from incompatible pointer type [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types] if (get_opt_bool(this_opt, "accel", &accel)) Signed-off-by: Daniel Wagner <daniel.wagner@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Reported-by: Fengguang Wu <fengguang.wu@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Tomi Valkeinen <tomi.valkeinen@xxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <alexander.levin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/video/fbdev/intelfb/intelfbdrv.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/video/fbdev/intelfb/intelfbdrv.c b/drivers/video/fbdev/intelfb/intelfbdrv.c index b847d530471a..e8d1309ccefc 100644 --- a/drivers/video/fbdev/intelfb/intelfbdrv.c +++ b/drivers/video/fbdev/intelfb/intelfbdrv.c @@ -306,7 +306,7 @@ static __inline__ int get_opt_int(const char *this_opt, const char *name, } static __inline__ int get_opt_bool(const char *this_opt, const char *name, - int *ret) + bool *ret) { if (!ret) return 0; -- 2.14.1
