From e73b65f1db7e3baa3db43951476b7d2d2381ba35 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ingo Molnar Date: Sun, 4 May 2008 09:29:43 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] sysfs: build fix x86.git testing found the following build failure on v2.6.26-rc1: In file included from include/linux/kobject.h:22, from include/linux/module.h:17, from include/linux/crypto.h:22, from arch/x86/kernel/asm-offsets_32.c:8, from arch/x86/kernel/asm-offsets.c:3: include/linux/sysfs.h:201: error: redefinition of 'sysfs_update_group' include/linux/sysfs.h:195: error: previous definition of 'sysfs_update_group' was here make[1]: *** [arch/x86/kernel/asm-offsets.s] Error 1 make: *** [prepare0] Error 2 with the following config: http://redhat.com/~mingo/misc/config-Sun_May__4_07_09_30_CEST_2008.bad the reason for the build failure is the duplicate definition of the sysfs_update_group() inline function in include/linux/sysfs.h. The duplication was a merge error: it was added via -mm by commit v2.6.25-7262-g2850699, "sysfs: sysfs_update_group stub for CONFIG_SYSFS=n" a day before v2.6.26-rc1, but a day before that the same commit was already merged upstream via the sysfs tree, with commit v2.6.25-7211-g1cbfb7a.
