Subject: [PATCH] perf: Move mmap page data_head offset assertion out of header
Date: Fri, 23 Mar 2012 15:41:20 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1332513680-7870-1-git-send-email-jolsa@redhat.com> (raw)
Having the build time assertion in header is making the perf build
fail on x86 with:
../../include/linux/perf_event.h:411:32: error: variably modified \
‘__assert_mmap_data_head_offset’ at file scope [-Werror]
I'm moving the build time validation out of the header, because I think
it's better than to lessen the perf build warn/error check.
