Subject: compile error on 3.10.1
Date: Sat, 20 Jul 2013 09:59:57 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <36183925.Z4AeQk3t4j@balsa> (raw)

Hi, just trying to compile a vanilla kernel and building using
allmodconfig and using oldconfig with the debian 3.10.1 config as a base.

With the later config, I get the following:

  CC [M]  drivers/net/wireless/ath/wil6210/debugfs.o

make[2]: *** [drivers/net/wireless] Error 2

There are also a bunch of warnings, most of the ones I could catch are
signedness related.
