Hello,

when trying to compile latest CVS MTD with JFFS2_FS_DEBUG=2 I get the following compiling errors on dbg_memalloc():

Quoted 5 lines

CC fs/jffs2/malloc.o
fs/jffs2/malloc.c: In function `jffs2_alloc_full_dirent':
fs/jffs2/malloc.c:100: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type fs/jffs2/malloc.c: In function `jffs2_free_full_dirent':

It's reproducible; with JFFS2_FS_DEBUG!=2 it does compile. I hope this information helps; I would be grateful if it ran through.

Regards,
Bernhard

It's there again... in MTD CVS 2005-11-21.
If you can't reproduce it, perhaps we have screwed something. But it's reproducible here.

Bernhard

Could you please double-check this? I've just compiled JFFS2 with DBGLVL=2 and saw only one warning, no errors.

OK we'll check this. Our kernel is partially a bit weird... Seems it's our fault then.

Thanks,
Bernhard
