I am compiling =
the linux-2.6.11-rc2-mipscvs-20050130 kernel using a toolchain I built myself from instructions on this =
mailing list. The toolchain consists of binutils-2.13.90.0.10, =
glibc-2.2.5, glibc-linuxthreads-2.2.5 and gcc-3.2-7.1 from H.J. Lu with =
all the patches like glibc-2.2.5-mips-build-gmon etc. applied. I am =
compiling the kernel for the AMD Au1100 (big endian) on an i686 host.  When I do this though I get the =
following error message a few minutes into the compilation =
process:

CC      =
drivers/char/rtc.o

drivers/char/rtc.c: In function `rtc_init':

drivers/char/rtc.c:955: `r' undeclared (first use in this =
function)

drivers/char/rtc.c:955: (Each undeclared identifier is reported =
only once

drivers/char/rtc.c:955: for each function it appears =
in.)

make[2]: *** =
[drivers/char/rtc.o] Error =
1

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

make: *** [drivers] =
Error 2

drivers/char/rtc.ot:~/mips/kernel/linux-2.6.11-rc2-mipscvs-200501=
30]$

I understand =
that the variable ‘r’ is not declared and this causes the =
error, but I don’t know where to declare it or am I completely =
wrong and something else is at fault?  Please provide some help with =
this.  =

A second =
question relates to some warnings I got earlier in the compilation =
process stating that some ‘variables’ (I assume) are =
‘deprecated’.  =
Is this anything to be concerned =
about?

Thanks.
