Subject: Recent I2C "dead code removal" breaks pmac sound.
Date: Thu, 11 Nov 2004 19:09:02 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20041111180902.GA8697@iram.es> (raw)
Hi,
a recent patch to drivers/i2c/i2c-core.c removed a bunch of
functions because they were unused; i2c_smbus_write_block_data
was in the lot. I happen to have a different definition of dead
code since grepping for it reveals (in sound/ppc/pmac.h):
#define snd_pmac_keywest_write(i2c,cmd,len,data) i2c_smbus_write_block_data((i2c)->client, cmd, len, data)
I only get a link time error since the removed functions are still
declared in include/linux/i2c.h, and that is certainly wrong.
For now I have successfully compiled with the following patch
which ressuscitates the function I need. In a recent pull, the
offending cset is 1.2114.2.8 from November 5th by arjan.
This patch is _not_ final, but I don't know what sould be done:
excluding the cset, or applying the following and making
the include file match the existing functions, or something
completely different?
Gabriel
