compile error on Ubuntu 8.10

compile error on Ubuntu 8.10

[Gabor MICSKO]

FYI:

Hi,

if i try to compile the latest "hox fix" version of kernel module

http://www.kernel.org/hg/index.cgi/btrfs/kernel/archive/tip.tar.bz2

( kernel-417d87e57364.tar.bz2 )

on the recently released Ubuntu 8.10 "Interpid Ibex", i get the
following error messages:

/home/trey/devel/btrfs/kernel-417d87e57364/file.c: In function
'btrfs_file_write':
/home/trey/devel/btrfs/kernel-417d87e57364/file.c:881: error: implicit

Solution - at least - for me:

If you're compiling against the 2.6.27 kernel in Ubuntu I think you'll need to 
use the standalone git tree instead:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/mason/btrfs-unstable-
standalone.git;a=summary

See Chris's email of the 20th:

cheers,
Chris

Ah, on btrfs wiki I've found only this:

git clone
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/btrfs-unstable.git

which was too big.


I've updated the wiki page:

Thank you!
