The above assignment causes the following compiler warning with
m68k-linux-gnu-gcc-4.1:

    drivers/net/vrf.c: In function ‘vrf_ip6_input_dst’:
    drivers/net/vrf.c:870: warning: initialized field with
side-effects overwritten
    drivers/net/vrf.c:870: warning: (near initialization for ‘fl6’)

Unfortunately I have no idea what it means, nor do I see what's wrong
with the code.

no idea. Fields are initialized once and left and right data types are the same.

Can you remove one line at a time? Line 870 is ".flowi6_proto   = iph->nexthdr," but all of the flowi6 macros are unique references to unique fields in flowi_common. The flowlabel line you point out is a unique field as well.

Can you run pahole on file that did compile? e.g.,

pahole -C 'flowi6' net/ipv6/route.o

and get the common struct too:

pahole -C 'flowi_common' net/ipv6/route.o

The only thing that seems to matter is assigning the result of the call to
ip6_flowinfo() to .flowlabel. Assigning a constant makes the warning go away.

Yeah, the 870 line number is funny, as it doesn't point to the offending line.

No output. Perhaps pahole doesn't play well with cross-compiling?

No complaints for the same initialization style at line 151?

Yes, it does make the warning go away.

The critical change seems to be moving the initialization of
.flowi6_iif: if that
is done before the initialization of .flowlabel, there's no compiler warning.

The generated asm output is identical, though, so I think this is some sort of
false positive or compiler bug. Hence let's ignore it.

Thanks!
