.36 progresss

.36 progresss

[Mike Shaver]

Well, I've "fixed up" (where "fixed up" means that they now compile
without error):
drivers/scsi/wd33c93.c
arch/mips/sgi/setup.c
arch/mips/indy_int.c
arch/mips/kernel/irixioctl.c
arch/mips/kernel/irixelf.c
arch/mips/kernel/irixsig.c

Left to do are:
entry.S
head.S
sysirix.c (boy, will _that_ be fun... =/)

The problems with entry.S are related to the BUILD_HANDLER macro set,
it seems, and the errors in question look like:
entry.S: Assembler messages:
entry.S:207: Error: .previous without corresponding .section; ignored
entry.S:207: Error: .previous without corresponding .section; ignored
entry.S:208: Error: .previous without corresponding .section; ignored
entry.S:208: Error: .previous without corresponding .section; ignored
entry.S:215: Error: .previous without corresponding .section; ignored
entry.S:215: Error: .previous without corresponding .section; ignored
entry.S:217: Error: .previous without corresponding .section; ignored
entry.S:217: Error: .previous without corresponding .section; ignored
entry.S:218: Error: .previous without corresponding .section; ignored
entry.S:218: Error: .previous without corresponding .section; ignored
entry.S:219: Error: .previous without corresponding .section; ignored
entry.S:219: Error: .previous without corresponding .section; ignored

head.S's problem gives an identical error, but the code doesn't seem
similar:
head.S: Assembler messages:
head.S:281: Error: .previous without corresponding .section; ignored

   278          LEAF(except_vec2_generic)
   279          /* Famous last words: unreached */
   280          mfc0    a1,CP0_ERROREPC
   281          PRINT("Cache error exception: c0_errorepc == %08x\n")
   282  1:
   283          j       1b

You all know how good I am with assembly, so I might have to wait for
Ralf to return. =)

In the meantime, I'll hack away at sysirix.c.  (Did it always give
piles of "control reaches end of non-void function" warnings?)

[stuff about too many compilation errors in .36 ...]

I've fixed most of the problems in my .37 tree.  An Indy kernel will build
now.  More testing will be done when I receive my Indy.  Until then I'll
just counting backwards slowly ...

Sounds like you're delivering by parachute drop ;-)

Btw, will anybody on this list (aside of David ...) be on the Linux
Kongress in Wuerzburg next week?  Would be nice to meet there.

Cool!
Can I get my hands on a source tree?

RSN on a FTP Server near you.  Maybe even linux.sgi.com ...
