Subject: ACPI modpost failure in 2.6.23-rc1-git2
Date: Mon, 6 Aug 2007 12:43:35 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070806114335.GA31368@shadowen.org> (raw)

Between 2.6.23-rc1-git1 and 2.6.23-rc1-git2 we started getting the
following fatal error during modpost on an x86_64 machine:

  FATAL: drivers/acpi/video: sizeof(struct acpi_device_id)=20 is not a
  modulo of the size of section __mod_acpi_device_table=48.
  Fix definition of struct acpi_device_id in mod_devicetable.h
  make[1]: *** [__modpost] Error 1

This check seems to have been added as part of the following commit:

  commit 29b71a1ca74491fab9fed09e9d835d840d042690
