Subject[PATCH -next] tty/serial: atmel: Include module.h to fix build failure
Message-ID<qP6hk-NV-5@gated-at.bofh.it>
If serial/atmel_serial.c is compiled with devicetree enabled, the
following build error is observed.

drivers/tty/serial/atmel_serial.c:192:1: warning:
	data definition has no type or storage class
drivers/tty/serial/atmel_serial.c:192:1: error:
	type defaults to 'int' in declaration of 'MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE'

MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE is used to specify devicetree compatibilities.

This hit my tree last night already with commit
041497eb721ddbdc1e690316976dd8ba7bc136a2, so all should be fine in the
next linux-next release.

Hi Guenter,
Just a thought. It has happended many times that we both have sent
patches to fix the same build fail. Maybe your patch got applied and
mine came late or maybe mine was applied and you came late. But I think
if we have a separate mailing list where people interested to fix and
monitor build failures will be members and we Cc that list whenever we
send patch for build fail and then in that case we will know that
someone else has already sent a patch for this failure and we can invest
the time in some other problem.

regards
sudip

Hi Sudip,

I agree, it would make sense to have a build(/runtime?)-fixes-only mailing
list. Question though is how to limit noise on such a list and, of course,
where and how to set it up. Any thoughts ?

The list can be moderated for non-subscribers. We both can be admin and
can approve the mails if it is relevant to this list. Due to our
timezones atleast one of us will be always available to approve mails.

> and, of course, > where and how to set it up. Any thoughts ?

since the list is kernel related, i think the best place should be
vger.kernel.org but I have no idea how or whom to approach to have a
list there. Maybe Greg can guide.
And if that is not possible then there are many alternatives.

Since most (all?) of these kind of fails are on linux-next, why not
do what everyone else does, and report the fail there and/or ensure
the fix is cc'd there?   Before I waste time trying to fix sth on
linux-next, I always google for the error msg and many times that
leads me to a lkml or linux-next post where it was reported and
fixed already.

Most or many, but not all.

Many times, Sudip and I end up fixing problems literally in parallel,
and it happened quite often lately that we do send patches in parallel.
Even if I do a Google search for an error message, it happens quite
often that I get no results, yet the fix is already out there on
some list.

Sudip, one option would be to set up a semi-private mailing list.
My build tests now have a dedicated virtual host (kerneltests.org).
I could set up a managed list there.
