Subject: [PATCH]-2.6.10-rc2: Fix Compiler Warning parport_pc.c
Date: Thu, 18 Nov 2004 11:09:48 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <419CF37C.7050000@compuserve.com> (raw)
After patching up to 2.6.10-rc2, I get the following compiler warning
when building the kernel with gcc 2.95:
drivers/parport/parport_pc.c:3317: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type
The warning occurs because parport_init_mode_setup() wants 'char *'
instead of 'const char *'.
The fix is to just remove the 'const' from the declaration.
Here's the patch to drivers/parport/parport_pc.c:
