As part of the never ending search for truth, justice and a clean kernel namespace, I compiled 2.1.21 with every legal option, modules wherever possible. There are still several compilation errors and warnings, patches will follow in 8 separate mails, one per major kernel directory.
<whinge> What does it take to get these compilation errors fixed? Some of them go back to 2.1.16. I've mailed patches to this list, I've mailed patches to Linus, I've mailed some patches to the responsible developers and there are still silly errors in the kernel source. It is getting very frustrating having to redo these patches for new kernels when the errors affect everybody who uses those sources. Sigh, one last try at getting them fixed. </whinge>
Even with the 8 sets of patches, there are still some compilation errors and warnings. The responsible developers need to look at these (bcc'd on this mail). Sources that fail to compile :-
drivers/char/pcwd.c khollis@bitgate.com drivers/net/strip.c cheshire@cs.stanford.edu drivers/net/wic.c alan.cox@linux.org
Sources that compile with warnings :-
drivers/net/apricot.c no email address for developer net/ax25/af_ax25.c alan.cox@linux.org
