Hi,

In linux-next as of today (0824), all h8300 builds fail for me with an
internal
compiler error.

Building h8300:allnoconfig ... failed
--------------
Error log:

In file included from include/linux/rcupdate.h:429:0,

^

I tried both gcc 5.1 and 5.2, built with the patch set available to me.

Is there a more recent compiler / patch set available that might fix
the problem ?


No.
I tried gcc 6.0. It got same error.
It looks optimization problem on h8300 target.
I will investigate it.

I get the same ICE with c6x gcc 5.1


Interesting. h8300 was the only gcc 5+ compiler I had used so far.
Just for fun, I built an alpha toolchain with gcc 5.1. Same problem there.
So it looks like it isn't a h8300 problem after all, it is a gcc problem.

Updated subject line, and copied rcu maintainers.
