My local gcc 11.1.1 (x86_64) does not produce any warnings/errorsYou should figure out whats up with that because it shouldn't compile with the gcc options that the kernel uses.AFAIK, at least 2 guys except me in this CC list compiled my series without errors/warnings. Maybe, staging tree is missing some Makefile updates? I'll resend series this evening anyway, but this is strange....Hm... In my version of GCC the error is: drivers/staging/r8188eu/hal/usb_halinit.c:1870:3: error: a label can only be part of a statement and a declaration is not a statement That's a different error from what I was expecting. It's caused by having a declaration directly after a case statement. The warning that I was expecting was from -Wdeclaration-after-statement and it looks like this: warning: ISO C90 forbids mixed declarations and code [-Wdeclaration-after-statement] You really should try investigate why this compiles for you because something is going wrong. It should not build without a warning.
Looks like it's bug in gcc 11.1.1. I've rebuilt this module with gcc 10 (gcc-10 (SUSE Linux) 10.3.1 20210707 [revision 048117e16c77f82598fca9af585500572d46ad73]) and build fails with error described above My default gcc is gcc (SUSE Linux) 11.1.1 20210721 [revision 076930b9690ac3564638636f6b13bbb6bc608aea] Any idea? :) With regards, Pavel Skripkin
