Is it really only me seeing this ?
drivers/vhost/vhost.c: In function 'translate_desc': include/linux/compiler.h:549:38: error: call to '__compiletime_assert_1879' declared with attribute error: BUILD_BUG_ON failed: sizeof(_s) > sizeof(long)
i386:allyesconfig, mips:allmodconfig and others, everywhere including mainline. Culprit is commit a89db445fbd7f1 ("vhost: block speculation of translated descriptors").
Nope, I just got another report of this on 5.2.y. Problem is also in Linus's tree :(
Please apply upstream commit 0d4a3f2abbef ("Revert "vhost: block speculation of translated descriptors") to v4.9.y-queue and later to fix the build problems. Or maybe just drop the offending commit from the stable release queues.
Thanks, Guenter
