Subject: [PATCH] [ALPHA] Redefine ATOMIC_INIT and ATOMIC64_INIT to drop the casts
Date: Sun, 12 Aug 2012 10:14:05 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120812021405.GB8442@localhost> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <502707D5.7020602@orcon.net.nz>

From: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de>

The following build error occurred during an alpha build:

net/core/sock.c:274:36: error: initializer element is not constant

Dave Anglin says:
> Here is the line in sock.i:
>
> struct static_key memalloc_socks = ((struct static_key) { .enabled =
> ((atomic_t) { (0) }) });

The above line contains two compound literals.  It also uses a designated
initializer to initialize the field enabled.  A compound literal is not a
constant expression.

The location of the above statement isn't fully clear, but if a compound
literal occurs outside the body of a function, the initializer list must
consist of constant expressions.
