Hi Ted,

Today's linux-next build (powerpc ppc64_defconfig) failed like this after
the slab tree was merged:

In file included from fs/jbd2/checkpoint.c:26:
include/trace/events/jbd2.h:11: error: expected ')' before '(' token
include/trace/events/jbd2.h:31: error: expected ')' before '(' token

Hmm... I wonder why the slab tree would be messing with tracing
include files.

Which slab tree is it? Is it Pekka's?

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/penberg/slab-2.6.git

Yup, that's it. I looked at this yesterday but didn't see anything suspicious. I don't think I have any patches that mess with any tracing include files. The only major change there should be the new default SLQB allocator. Perhaps ext4 is simply missing some includes that are pulled by SLUB but not SLQB?
