Bug#344205: linux-source-2.6.14: drivers/net/wireless/airo.c fails to compile
dann frazier, 2006-01-06 16:50:08 -0700 : tags 344205 + unreproducible [...] I followed your instructions, and I can't reproduce. I used the 686 config from linux-image-2.6.12-1, Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but that's not what I did. I'm not trying to rebuild kernels with the config provided by Debian packages (which I don't doubt would work), I'm trying to build my own kernel packages from my own customised config. Which I linked to in my original bug report. The longrun.ko module exists in 2.6.15-1, is anything else needed? That was merely an example of why I wanted to build my own kernel packages. That one turned out to be a bad reason, but there might be others (like, all the reasons justifying the existence of the linux-source-* packages). [End of He doesn't even try to understand me, whine whine] Anyway. When reading the build log in more detail, then airo.c, I understood the reason for the bug. The function 'flashpchar' is explicitly defined at the beginning of the file, but only in an #ifdef/#endif block (testing for MICSUPPORT). Unfortunately, MICSUPPORT is #undefed earlier if CONFIG_CRYPTO is not defined. Also, the code using the flashpchar function seems not to be in a #ifdef/#endif block. So when the Crypto API is not enabled, you get a call for a function whose prototype is missing. If I just enable that, then I can build my kernels again. I don't know what should be done, whether it's adding #ifdefs to the function call or turning #warning MIC support requires Crypto API into an #error, or tweaking the rules so that you can't enable the airo module without the crypto API. Your call, but I suggest this should be at least signaled to upstream.

Debian kernel images (at least up to 2.6.14) don't provide Longrun power management on my Crusoe laptop. So I'm stuck with 2.6.12 (the last version that I managed to build), which makes the boot process horribly long (udev takes almost two minutes to do its job before the computer can do anything useful).
