[ Upstream commit 35a3f4ef0ab543daa1725b0c963eb8c05e3376f8 ] Some drivers pass a pointer to volatile data to virt_to_bus() and virt_to_phys(), and that works fine. One exception is alpha. This results in a number of compile errors such as drivers/net/wan/lmc/lmc_main.c: In function 'lmc_softreset': drivers/net/wan/lmc/lmc_main.c:1782:50: error: passing argument 1 of 'virt_to_bus' discards 'volatile' qualifier from pointer target type drivers/atm/ambassador.c: In function 'do_loader_command': drivers/atm/ambassador.c:1747:58: error: passing argument 1 of 'virt_to_bus' discards 'volatile' qualifier from pointer target type Declare the parameter of virt_to_phys and virt_to_bus as pointer to volatile to fix the problem.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
