Subject: Compiler problems with zero-length array in the middle of a struct
Date: Thu, 05 Dec 2002 11:47:26 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3DEF2EBE.F273B44A@mips.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 534 bytes --]

Some compiler reject a zero-length array in the middle of a structure,
and report it as an error.
So could we please redo the change, that has recently been done to
include/linux/raid/md_p.h (see patch below).
