From f50caa9b517a2542ae9769fc17ad84110ae07c8b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnd Bergmann Date: Tue, 14 Nov 2017 12:40:31 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] debugfs: fix debugfs_real_fops() build error Some drivers use debugfs_real_fops() even when CONFIG_DEBUG_FS is disabled, which now leads to a build error: In file included from include/linux/list.h:9:0, from include/linux/wait.h:7, from include/linux/wait_bit.h:8, from include/linux/fs.h:6, from drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/b43legacy/debugfs.c:26: drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/b43legacy/debugfs.c: In function 'b43legacy_debugfs_read': drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/b43legacy/debugfs.c:224:23: error: implicit declaration of function 'debugfs_real_fops'; did you mean 'debugfs_create_bool'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] My first impulse was to add another 'static inline' dummy function returning NULL for it, which would work fine. However, most callers feed the pointer into container_of(), so it seems a little dangerous here. Since all the callers are inside of a read/write file operation that gets eliminated in this configuration, so having an 'extern' declaration seems better here. If it ever gets used in a dangerous way, that will now result in a link error.
