It may not yet concern the core kernel group but
perhaps it soon will if things go well...
I get a compile error from /drivers/block/loop_cast.c,
part of the kerneli patches.
It doesn't like:
#if defined(__GNUC__) && (defined(i386) || defined(i486))
__asm__ (
"roll %%cl,%0"
: "r" (data)
: "0" (data), "c" (count)
: "cx"
);
and so forth
where the error occurs on the cx register:
fixed or forbidden register 2 (cx) was spilled for class CREG.
occurs many times before the kernel compiles bails out.
Is there any trivial fix?
The kernel is 2.2.14 with 2.2.14 international patches,
running on a Celeron processor. The dist doing the
kernel build is debian woody, current as of today.
