From: Ian Abbott Date: Mon, 29 Apr 2013 14:48:44 +0000 (+0100) Subject: m4/as-linux.m4: don't use backported pcmcia_loop_tuple() X-Git-Url: http://git.tremily.us/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e30ed2d438f87f57f61ac5db2f2552fc8051ad41;p=comedi.git m4/as-linux.m4: don't use backported pcmcia_loop_tuple() Red Hat backported pcmcia_loop_tuple() from 2.6.33 to their 2.6.32 kernel (at least in RHEL6) but they use it in hardly anything, and kept the older configuration mechanism from 2.6.28 involving pcmcia_get_first_tuple() and pcmcia_get_next_tuple() macros. Since they didn't change the prototypes of other functions such as pcmcia_request_window() or pcmcia_map_mem_page() at the same time as backporting pcmcia_loop_tuple(), our code that uses those functions in the callback function passed to pcmcia_loop_tuple() fails to compile for these Red Hat 2.6.32 kernels. Change the COMEDI_CHECK_PCMCIA_LOOP_TUPLE configuration test to ignore pcmcia_loop_tuple() if the pcmcia_get_first_tuple() macro is defined. This will cause our comedi PCMCIA drivers to use the older configuration mechanism from the 2.6.28 kernel instead of attempting to use the broken, backported mechanism.
