Hi there, I'm trying to compile kernel 2.6.7-rc1 for a Motorola 860T misc board. As of now, I've also tried compiling 2.6.6, 2.6.5, the latest BenH 2.6 Development kernel and the latest Yellow Dog's latest kernel. All came down to compile errors, and I'm now focusing on solving the problem for 2.6.7-rc1.
So, I'm getting errors when the compilation reaches file arch/ppc/8xx_io/uart.c . Here is some of the output: -------------------- arch/ppc/8xx_io/uart.c:86: warning: type defaults to `int' in declaration of `DECLARE_TASK_QUEUE' arch/ppc/8xx_io/uart.c:86: warning: parameter names (without types) in function declaration arch/ppc/8xx_io/uart.c: In function `serial_console_device': arch/ppc/8xx_io/uart.c:149: storage class specified for parameter `rs_table' arch/ppc/8xx_io/uart.c:149: parameter `rs_table' is initialized arch/ppc/8xx_io/uart.c:151: warning: braces around scalar initializer arch/ppc/8xx_io/uart.c:151: warning: (near initialization for `rs_table') arch/ppc/8xx_io/uart.c:151: warning: excess elements in scalar initializer ... arch/ppc/8xx_io/uart.c:185: field `tqueue' has incomplete type arch/ppc/8xx_io/uart.c:186: field `tqueue_hangup' has incomplete type arch/ppc/8xx_io/uart.c:202: warning: structure defined inside parms arch/ppc/8xx_io/uart.c:202: storage class specified for parameter `ser_info_t' arch/ppc/8xx_io/uart.c:204: storage class specified for parameter `sercons' arch/ppc/8xx_io/uart.c:204: parameter `sercons' is initialized arch/ppc/8xx_io/uart.c:213: parse error before `*' arch/ppc/8xx_io/uart.c:213: storage class specified for parameter `change_speed' arch/ppc/8xx_io/uart.c:213: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype arch/ppc/8xx_io/uart.c:214: storage class specified for parameter `rs_8xx_wait_until_sent' arch/ppc/8xx_io/uart.c:216: parse error before `*' arch/ppc/8xx_io/uart.c:218: storage class specified for parameter `serial_paranoia_check' -------------------- I subtracted some lines (...) that show warnings in the struct rs_table, as there was one already declared (I didn't found it). When I compare the uart.c file for 8xx with the one for 8260, I find that this structure is the same, and no errors were found when compiling for it. I'm trying to follow the errors, but I didn't found a link between the structure rs_table and serial_console_device (where these warnings start). Has anyone sucessfully compiled the kernel for 8xx PowerPC yet? Any help would be apreciated, Regards, Ricardo Diz ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
