Subject[PATCH] (again) > 256 CPU cpumask build fix - const confusion
Andrew,

Please apply the following patch. It's needed to build NR_CPUS > 256.

This replaces my cpumask build patch from yesterday. It now builds with
gcc 2.95.3, as well as gcc 3.3.

The key change was to a single line in cpumask_const_value.h, removing
the cast to (cpumask_const_t) in the mk_cpumask_const() macro.

gcc 2.x compilers cannot take the address of a cast variable, if both
the variable and the cast have typedef specified types (not even if the
cast is to the same type). The removed cast didn't do anything in this
case (const_value) anyway, other than annoy the compiler.

It builds successfully for NR_CPUS in {1, 8, 32, 64, 128, 256} for gcc
2.95.3 and 3.3 on i386, and for 3.3.2 on ia64. Also builds 512 NR_CPUS
on ia64.

The 512 build on i386 fails due to unrelated reason - an overflow of
cpu_gdt_table in arch/i386/kernel/head.S.

The build fix in mach_apic.h that takes i386 from 128 CPUs to 256 will
probably never be tested. For less than 128 CPUs, it amounts to the
application of the literal no-op macro mk_cpumask_const(), so "can't
break anything". If you'd rather take this patch without the
mach_apic.h change, that's fine.

The individual file comments are:

include/linux/cpumask.h
Build fails if NR_CPUS > 128 (i386) or > 256 (ia64), with:
include/linux/cpumask.h: In function `next_online_cpu':
include/linux/cpumask.h:56: structure has no member named `val'
Fix - add missing mk_cpumask_const() macro calls.

include/asm-i386/mach-default/mach_apic.h
Have target_cpus return cpumask_const_t, to match type passed
into apic setup routines. Fixes 3 i386 build errors:
incompatible type for argument 1 of `cpu_mask_to_apicid'

include/asm-generic/cpumask_const_value.h
Dont cast cpumask: gcc 2.95.3 (3.3 ok) fails: "invalid lvalue in unary `&'"
taking address of any variable of typedef type that's cast to typedef type.

This patch is against the latest http://lia64.bkbits.net/to-linus-2.5.
