linux-toradex.git/scripts/mod, branch v2.6.18-rc4 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules kbuild: improve error from file2alias 2006-08-01T09:32:46+00:00 Sam Ravnborg sam@mars.ravnborg.org 2006-07-09T14:26:07+00:00 fb33d81613a4e3e27972a65b6e566de50a447d33 The original errormessage was just plain unreadable. Sample error message after this update (not for real - I provoked it): FATAL: drivers/net/s2io: sizeof(struct pci_device_id)=33 is not a modulo of the size of section __mod_pci_device_table=160. Fix definition of struct pci_device_id in mod_devicetable.h Before a warning was generated - this is now a fatal error. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
