Kernel version 2.4.7 compile errors

Kernel version 2.4.7 compile errors

I'm trying to compile 2.4.7 with resiser support and I get this:

make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux/fs/reiserfs'
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes

I'm using the same .config as I was in 2.4.4.  I haven't had the time to
compare the two files to see what is different.  If I don't get a solution
in the next day or so I will.

Check your hardware. In my tree it is 'retval' as it should.
'a' and 'c' differ by a single bit ...

As above. INIT_LIST_HEAD

> inode.c:876: warning: implicit declaration of function
> `knode_items_version'

As above. inode_items_version

Guessing: "->" <-----> "/>" ? 

> inode.c:882: structure has no member named `sd_atkme'

As above. sd_atime

> inode.c:889: `inofe' undeclared (first use in this function)

As above. inode

You probably have a memory chip with broken bit 1 on some address(es)

Dodgy RAM. Had the same problem some time ago. The machine would run
memtest86 as long as you like, no problem. Compile a kernel and I'd
get these bit errors. Reboot, powercycle, look at the file -- no
problem, probably compile next time.

Replacing the RAM fixed the problem.
