To date, no 2.96 version of gcc works properly on ARM, and I for one don't have the expertise necessary to fix gcc myself. Do you recommend that I stop all ARM work because of this? ;( Anyway, the work around is a trivial one that I've already posted to the list, including the necessary GCC version tests. Additionally David Howells has posted a patch to remove the __builtin_expect stuff, so this is a non-issue now. -- Russell King (rmk@arm.linux.org.uk) The developer of ARM Linux http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/personal/aboutme.html - 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/
