Hello there,

concerning the file arch/i386/kernel/msr.c
i have to report some breaking build problems.

I have set SMP on, Pentium III FX support on
(and a few others which i think arent important).

in the "make modules" step, i got this:
>>>
make[1]: Entering directory
`/HD/hda3/usr/src/linux-2.4.0-test1/arch/i386/kernel'
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4.0-test1/include -Wall
-Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe
-march=i686 -DMODULE -DEXPORT_SYMTAB -c msr.c
msr.c: In function `msr_smp_wrmsr':
msr.c:99: warning: passing arg 2 of `wrmsr_eio' makes integer from pointer

msr.c: In function `do_wrmsr':

make[1]: *** [msr.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory
`/HD/hda3/usr/src/linux-2.4.0-test1/arch/i386/kernel'
make: *** [_mod_arch/i386/kernel] Error 2
<<<

i suppose it is caused by the stricter accuracy of gcc.

bye, AlexS.
