hi Ted,

> Theodore Ts'o (18):
>       ext4: rename {exit,init}_ext4_*() to ext4_{exit,init}_*()

Today's -tip fails to build due to upstream commit 5dabfc7 ("ext4: rename 
{exit,init}_ext4_*() to ext4_{exit,init}_*()"), on all[yes/mod]config with 
CONFIG_EXT4_FS_XATTR disabled:

  fs/ext4/super.c:4776: error: implicit declaration of function ‘ext4_init_xattr’

Commit 5dabfc7 renamed init_ext4_xattr to ext4_init_xattr but forgot to update the 
definition in fs/ext4/xattr.h. The patch below fixes it.

Thanks,

	Ingo

Thanks for catching this, my bad.

Btw, could you try to write these things so that the changelog doesn't
have to be totally rewritten? Now I always end up having to move
things around and edit them to be useful from a long-term perspective,
which is kind of silly.

Heh, i was just lazy and used sfr's linux-next build bug reporting mails as a 
template ;-)

Point taken in any case, i'll read your edited changelog and will change the 
template accordingly.

Would this:

  Upstream commit 5dabfc7 ("ext4: rename {exit,init}_ext4_*() to 
  ext4_{exit,init}_*()"), breaks the build on all[yes/mod]config with
  CONFIG_EXT4_FS_XATTR disabled:

  ...

have been better?

Thanks,

	Ingo

Linus, if it's helpful, I have a pull request with correctly worded
changelogs here:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4.git for_linus

My apologies again for screwing up these configs.  The following has
been tested with allnoconfig, and I'm currently in the process of
testing allyesconfig (which I'm fairly confident will compile, or at
least if it fails, it won't be due to changes that came in via my
tree).

Yes. Except for the kernel the default git commit abbreviation is
borderline too short. Seven hex-chars can easily alias with a few more
pulls from me: git will not give aliases at the time it gives a
shorthand, but a month or two later the abbreviated commit may no
longer be unique.

So I suggest using --abbrev=12 or similar.

What I ended up writing your commit as was this:

    ext4: fix compile with CONFIG_EXT4_FS_XATTR disabled

    Commit 5dabfc78dced ("ext4: rename {exit,init}_ext4_*() to
    ext4_{exit,init}_*()") causes

      fs/ext4/super.c:4776: error: implicit declaration of function
‘ext4_init_xattr’

    when CONFIG_EXT4_FS_XATTR is disabled.

    It renamed init_ext4_xattr to ext4_init_xattr but forgot to update the
    dummy definition in fs/ext4/xattr.h.

ok. A helper script i use does this:

   git log --pretty=format:"%h: %s" $@

I have added --abbrev=12. Might make sense to lengthen the %h default in upstream 
Git as well?

Ok, this indeed is much nicer to read.

Thanks,
