Ok, I will ask for a embedded powerpc board to test this.

Thanks

On the other hand, it would probably be a *really* good idea to test compile
it on a powerpc box, see if it shakes out any latent bugs.  All that fixing
this will do is stop us from over-including io.h (and thus types.h) - but if
there's any code that breaks because we don't include types.h and they don't
pick it up otherwise.

(In other words, it's probably not causing a problem, but it *could* potentially
be papering over a problem elsewhere...)

That certainly looks wrong. It's also been wrong since October 2006, so
it's probably not actually causing problems.

Try sending it to the 'Trival Patch Monkey' ("For small patches you may
want to CC the Trivial Patch Monkey triv...@kernel.org which collects
"trivial" patches.")

[PowerPC] - Define error in arch/arch/powerpc/boot/io.h ??

2014-07-24 Thread Lucas Tanure
Hi,

Line 2 of arch/arch/powerpc/boot/io.h :

 1  #ifndef _IO_H
 2  #define __IO_H
 3
 4  #include "types.h"

Should be _IO_H, not __IO_H. I'm right ?

Thanks
