It is only needed if you build your v2.2.x kernel for the Initio 1060p LVD SCSI controller using a later compiler than 2.7.2.3 and then are stupid enough to ignore any compiler warnings about 'ambiguous else, suggest using braces'. Harbison & Steele 2nd Ed, p202, under 'Dangling Else problem' also show the misleading indentation. This aggravation was prompted by trying to install RedHat 7.0 and Mandrake 7.2 to my SCSI disks last week. In linux/drivers/scsi/i60uscsi.c: Line 768: add ' {' at end of line Line 771: replace 4th Tab with '} ' Line 772: delete 5th Tab. I tried hand entering the patch into Outhouse Exploder 5.5 and conceeded. cu johnf - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
