2.6.12-rc5 build failure

2.6.12-rc5 build failure

[Gene Heskett]

Greetings;

Just now, trying to build 2.6.12-rc5, I'm getting this:
  CC      drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_devintf.o
drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_devintf.c: In function `ipmi_new_smi':
drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_devintf.c:532: warning: passing arg 1 of `class_simple_device_add' from incompatible pointer type

make[2]: *** [drivers/char/ipmi] Error 2
make[1]: *** [drivers/char] Error 2

This is new, rc4 is running fairly well.  I thought my .config
had become contaminated, but the IPMI stuff looks ok:

[root@coyote linux-2.6.12-rc5]# grep IPMI .config
# IPMI
CONFIG_IPMI_HANDLER=y
# CONFIG_IPMI_PANIC_EVENT is not set
CONFIG_IPMI_DEVICE_INTERFACE=y
# CONFIG_IPMI_SI is not set
# CONFIG_IPMI_WATCHDOG is not set
# CONFIG_IPMI_POWEROFF is not set

???

Aarrrhhggg... Thats about 150 chars longer than I can copy-paste here.

I'll wait for rc6 I think.

Why does the GitWeb interface lack a link to have a patch saved as a
text file?  Cutting and pasting isn't working for me with this patch. 
Also, saving the webpage as text from Firefox 1.0.4 also fails to give
me a working patch.

I get this patch error:

patching file drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_devintf.c
patch: **** malformed patch at line 4: " interface. Other values will
set the major device number"

What's up with this?

Thanks,
            MIles

It would be nice to add a "shortlink this patch" feature to gitweb...have a
link like  http://kernel.org/git/gitweb.cgi?slink=someASCIIhashof40char...

OT probably...  So how does one go about getting 'gitweb'?

I now see a couple of .git files in the snapshots dir that I grabbed 
this morning:

[amanda@coyote src]$ ls -l |grep .git
-rw-r--r--    1 root    root           66398 May 26 09:01 patch-2.6.12-rc5-git1.gz
-rw-r--r--    1 root    root          196014 May 27  2005 patch-2.6.12-rc5-git2.gz

Do these include that fix?
