Hi,
I had a build of v4.4.24, with CONFIG_NVM not set, fail like this: drivers/block/null_blk.c:569:27: error: storage size of 'null_lnvm_dev_ops' isn't known static struct nvm_dev_ops null_lnvm_dev_ops; ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ scripts/Makefile.build:264: recipe for target 'drivers/block/null_blk.o' failed make[2]: *** [drivers/block/null_blk.o] Error 1 scripts/Makefile.build:403: recipe for target 'drivers/block' failed make[1]: *** [drivers/block] Error 2 Makefile:959: recipe for target 'drivers' failed make: *** [drivers] Error 2
Jens' commit a7fd9a4f3e81 ("lightnvm: ensure that nvm_dev_ops can be used without CONFIG_NVM") fixed that for me (it did require a small context change to get it applied to v4.4.24). Does it make sense to add that commit to the v4.4.y stable tree?
Thanks,
Paul Bolle
