Package: linux-source-2.6.24
Version: 2.6.24-4
When I compile the kernel and modules from linux-source-2.6.24-4 I
receive the following warning:
arch/x86/kernel/setup64.c: In function ‘setup_per_cpu_areas’:
arch/x86/kernel/setup64.c:103: warning: the address of
‘contig_page_data’ will always evaluate as ‘true’
$ cd /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.24
$ make-kpkg --revision=2.6.24.custom binary modules_image
arch/x86/kernel/setup64.c: In function ‘setup_per_cpu_areas’:
arch/x86/kernel/setup64.c:103: warning: the address of
‘contig_page_data’ will always evaluate as ‘true’
I don't think this is very severe, it might just be that it has to be
'config_page_data' instead of 'contig_page_data'.
I am using Debian GNU/Linux lenny/sid, kernel 2.6.24-1-amd64 and glibc
2.7-6 (libc6_2.7-6_amd64)
Cheers!

gcc version would have been more important.
anyway that bug report does not belong in the debian bug tracking
system. the linux-2.6 has always had warnings, most of them get
fixed over time. please work with upstream if you care.
closing as invalid request.
thanks
