Whilst the extra '*' looks like an obvious typo, it's interesting that your error message implies that it's allowed in some situations and that the version of GCC that I use (4.9.1) doesn't complain about it. If it's valid C, I've no idea what that syntax that might represent. -- Tixy -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
