Package: kernel-source-2.4.27 Version: 2.4.27-8 Severity: normal The fix for CAN-2004-1056 (Fix insufficient locking checks in DRM code) (see #285563) introduced the filp parameter in the LOCK_TEST_WITH_RETURN macro in drmP.h and various i810 and i830 source files in /drivers/char/drm. As is noted by the maintainer in the mail that accompanies the patch, this syntax comes from the 2.6 series and a different workaround to the locking problem is adopted in the patch for 2.4.27. However, the macro definition from 2.6 seems to have been inadvertently introduced at the same time. I have no idea what effect this has - DRM macros are hard to follow - but anyway, it gives me some compiler warnings about redefined macros because the non-i81x drivers are still using the LOCK_TEST_WITH_RETURN( dev ) syntax. Sorry if these are just harmless compiler warnings but I thought I should let you know.
