Subject: [PATCH] (-mm) drivers/pci/msi: explicit declaration of msi_register
Date: Tue, 14 Mar 2006 16:01:02 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <44172F0E.6070708@ce.jp.nec.com> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1086 bytes --]
Hello,
In 2.6.16-rc6-mm1, I've seen tons of compiler warnings on ia64:
include2/asm/msi.h: In function `ia64_msi_init':
include2/asm/msi.h:23: warning: implicit declaration of function `msi_register'
In file included from include2/asm/machvec.h:408,
from include2/asm/io.h:70,
from include2/asm/smp.h:20,
from /build/rc6/source/include/linux/smp.h:22,
The problem is that msi_register() is used in ia64_msi_init()
without declaration.
Since ia64_msi_init() is a part of machine vector, most of files
hit this warning and may hide other important messages.
Other than ia64, i386 and x86_64 have similar msi.h.
But they are not affected since include/asm/msi.h isn't
included without drivers/pci/pci.h where msi_register() is
declared.
The attached patch fixes this specific problem.
Proper fix might be moving the declaration in common header
but including something from machvec.h causes a lot of other
problems, so it would be nice if someone have better idea on this.
Thanks,

Declare msi_register() in msi.h.
The patch is especially necessary for ia64 on which most of files
emit compiler warnings like below:
include2/asm/msi.h: In function `ia64_msi_init':
include2/asm/msi.h:23: warning: implicit declaration of function `msi_register'
In file included from include2/asm/machvec.h:408,
from include2/asm/io.h:70,
from include2/asm/smp.h:20,
from /build/rc6/source/include/linux/smp.h:22,
