Hello!
During compilation of the (stock) kernel 2.2.15pre12 on my debian-box
using gcc-2.95.2 i get the following warnings in (amongst others)
scsi.h:
{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:1888: Warning: using `%eax' instead of `%ax' due to `l' suffix
Since the kernel runs happily on my SCSI-based system, it seems that
it is only a cosmetic problem, but just in case you would like to know
a (snip of the) buildlog is included below.
My experience with assembler programming is so litte (non existing),
that I didn't even *try* to patch it myself...I hope you can accept my
apology for that.
Feel free to contact me if you need me to try something out, or you
cannot reproduce the situation.
Please CC me responses top this mail since my news-system (which I use
for lk) is down at the moment...
Best regards
Morten Hendriksen
Here follows the quote from my "make bzImage modules". I know it is a
bit verbose, but I'd rather give you a little more than you need than
a litte less. This is the only place that the problem occurs in that build.
