Using a preprocessor directive to check for CONFIG_IPV6 in the middle of a DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS macro's arg list causes sparse to report a series of errors: ./include/trace/events/tcp.h:68:1: error: directive in argument list ./include/trace/events/tcp.h:75:1: error: directive in argument list ./include/trace/events/tcp.h:144:1: error: directive in argument list ./include/trace/events/tcp.h:151:1: error: directive in argument list ./include/trace/events/tcp.h:216:1: error: directive in argument list ./include/trace/events/tcp.h:223:1: error: directive in argument list ./include/trace/events/tcp.h:274:1: error: directive in argument list ./include/trace/events/tcp.h:281:1: error: directive in argument list Once sparse finds an error, it stops printing warnings for the file it is checking. This masks any sparse warnings that would normally be reported for the core TCP code. Instead, handle the preprocessor conditionals in a couple of auxiliary macros. This also has the benefit of reducing duplicate code. Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Mat Martineau <mathew.j.martineau@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
