Hi Rusty, Today's linux-next merge of the rr tree got a conflict in drivers/virtio/virtio_pci.c between commit b5146336e3bc3786712919e94106063036dae86b ("virtio: do not statically allocate root device") from the driver-core tree and commits f53dba3a1ea82dfb37f094a942ae74032413809f ("virtio: struct device - replace bus_id with dev_name(), dev_set_name()") and ab4e479d47ceac2fa5bebd5b99d27f01fe0e0c8b ("virtio: add PCI device release () function") from the rr tree. I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary. Mark, does this driver-core patch obsolete the second rr tree patch above?
The conflict resolution is correct.
This is not unexpected. Mark sent me those two, the others went to Greg. I'm happy to ack them and send them on to Greg.
You could do that, or let Stephen carry the fixup or pull these bits from Greg's tree into your before NEXT_PATCHES_START: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/gregkh/gregkh-2.6/patches/driver-core/driver-core-add-root_device_register.patch http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/gregkh/gregkh-2.6/patches/driver-core/virtio-do-not-statically-allocate-root-device.patch Thanks, Mark.
