| |
A year after I did report this inconsistency, it is still not fixed
If include/scsi/scsi.h is included without __KERNEL__ #defined, then this error message apears.
/usr/src/linux/include/scsi/scsi.h:172: parse error before "u8" /usr/src/linux/include/scsi/scsi.h:172: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union /usr/src/linux/include/scsi/scsi.h:173: warning: data definition has no type or storage class
Is there no interest in user applications for kernel features or is there just no kernel maintainer left over who makes the needed work?
Hints:
- A type named "u8" is superfluous (even with __KERNEL__ #defined) because we have a standard type uint8_t
- Kernel include files should be checked for use compliance with level compilations on a regular base. It is the duty of the persons who make changes to make sure that their changes don't break things.
