I have sent a patch to fix this. In the meantime, if the merge conflict of the GPIO tree on board-paz00.c is solved by taking the GPIO version, there is no build error. There are a few important patches pending in the GPIO tree that should undergo testing - Stephen, do you think you could resolve the conflict that way to enable the latest GPIO tree to be tested again? Thanks, Alex. On Tue, Jul 29, 2014 at 5:42 PM, Thierry Reding [off-list ref] wrote:

* PGP Signed by an unknown key Hi Linus, After merging the gpio tree, today's linux-next build (arm multi_v7_defconfig) failed like this: In file included from arch/arm/mach-tegra/board-paz00.c:20:0: include/linux/gpio/machine.h:24:2: error: unknown type name 'u16' u16 chip_hwnum; ^ include/linux/gpio/machine.h:31:19: error: field 'list' has incomplete type struct list_head list; ^ Caused by commit 0a6d315827ee ("gpio: split gpiod board registration into machine header") or an interaction of that with commit a0524acc94c9 ("ARM: tegra: Sort includes alphabetically") from the arm-soc tree. linux/gpio/machine.h needs to include some of the same files that linux/gpio/driver.h does. See Rule 1 in Documentation/SubmitChecklist. I have used the version of the gpio tree from next-20140728 for today.I think linux/gpio/machine.h needs at least linux/types.h (for u16, though I guess that "dependency" could be removed by simply making gpiod_lookup.chip_hwnum an unsigned int) and linux/list.h for struct list_head.
