[master-2009-01-12] compiler-error in 'drivers/net/irda/donauboe.c'

[Sedat Dilek]

Hi,

I could not compile latest wl.git due to problems in
'drivers/net/irda/donauboe.c'.
A fix and description is given in [1].
Hope this helps other people.

No, it's not mainline - I checked 2.6.29-rc1-git{1|2}.
But, it is in net-2.6.git [1] if you mean that by mainline :).

Oh cool and thank you for the information!
Finally, it will be in 2.6.29-rc1-git3 then :-).
Anyway, it would be nice to have a wl.git-tree which is compilable
concerning net-* stuff.
But, it's hard to expect such thing from a very early rc1-kernel :).

That's not the job of the wireless tree(s).
Sounds like you want one of the netdev trees instead.

Hi Randy,

I agree with you that it is not the job of the wl-tree to fix issues
from other dev-branches.
Speaking as an end-user, latest wl.git was not compilable with my
kernel-dotconfig.

Just to give a feedback:
wl.git (master-2009-01-12) + 2.6.29-rc1-git3 was compilable and it's
running now.

Kind Regards,
Sedat

P.S.: Additional Informations see attached txt-file.
