Use ext2_find_next_bit (generic_find_next_le_bit) to find the set bit in little endian bitmap region.Is any of this in linux-next now? http://kisskb.ellerman.id.au/kisskb/buildresult/2208481/ | fs/udf/balloc.c:274: error: implicit declaration of function 'generic_find_next_le_bit'Yep, Jan's patch caused the build breakage. Because generic_find_next_le_bit() is not available for all archtectures. So we should use ext2_find_next_bit() here.Most architectures use the definitions in asm-generic, so they're OK. M68k doesn't. S390 is also affected, and I think arm as well (but there's no arm all-modconfig build in linux-next, so I'm not 100% sure).
Which brings me to another question. In the past, I wondered several times
whether a build error happened on other architectures as well.
Going through all failed logs manually is a bit tedious.
So would it be possible to have some method to find related build errors
on different configs/architectures? E.g. a scoreboard with the most popular
build errors/compiler warnings and links to the affected configs?
Thx again for the great linux-next work!
