Can't compile today

I cannot compile asus_switcheroo anymore. I think it is linked to my upgrade to linux 3.2.

Here is the error:

/root/asus-switcheroo/asus-switcheroo.c:337:28: error: expected ')' before 'bool' /root/asus-switcheroo/asus-switcheroo.c:338:32: error: expected ')' before string constant /root/asus-switcheroo/asus-switcheroo.c:340:15: error: expected declaration specifiers or '...' before string constant /root/asus-switcheroo/asus-switcheroo.c:341:20: error: expected declaration specifiers or '...' before string constant /root/asus-switcheroo/asus-switcheroo.c:342:16: error: expected declaration specifiers or '...' before string constant /root/asus-switcheroo/asus-switcheroo.c:343:16: error: expected declaration specifiers or '...' before string constant make[2]: * [/root/asus-switcheroo/asus-switcheroo.o] Error 1 make[1]: * [module/root/asus-switcheroo] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-3.2.1-1-ARCH' make: *\ [default] Error 2

I don't understand the cause of the problem. It seems to want to use a module_param prototype with only one parameter (the syntax error disappears when I put only the first parameter). But I can't find where this prototype would be declared, I can only find the 3 parameter variant in my include files.

Adding #include <linux/moduleparam.h> at the beginning of the includes makes this go away.

Then I have those: /root/asus-switcheroo/asus-switcheroo.c:341:15: error: expected declaration specifiers or '...' before string constant /root/asus-switcheroo/asus-switcheroo.c:342:20: error: expected declaration specifiers or '...' before string constant /root/asus-switcheroo/asus-switcheroo.c:343:16: error: expected declaration specifiers or '...' before string constant /root/asus-switcheroo/asus-switcheroo.c:344:16: error: expected declaration specifiers or '...' before string constant

This is solved by including <linux/module.h>, so the moduleparam.h is no longer necessary.

I had to do this in several files (i915_jprobe, nouveau_jprobe, byo_switcheroo).

Then everything compiled…

I don't know if something changed in the 3.2 kernel headers…

Is this fixed now?

Yes it compiles, perfect
