error: expected identifier or '(' before '.' token

I've searched around on the internet and I can't seem to have found the solution.
I also haven't done much coding at all, as you can probably see.
The error is on the 21st line:

Hope someone can help.

should that ./ be there?

Don't think so. I definitely thought it was wrong, but there also more errors.

I'll fix that.

It's fixed. This is what it looks now:

int load_elf (void *elfstart, struct __argv *argv) {

Now I have a new problem: there are multiple definitions of load_elf in the line above. If you can see the problem, then you're welcome to make a suggestion.

Might be just me, but shouldn't this:

Code:

---

./load_elf(void *elfstart, struct __argv *argv) {
u32 i;
elfheader *elffile;

---

be this:

Code:

---

./load_elf(void *elfstart, struct __argv *argv) {
u32 i;
elfheader *elffile;
}

@Bliepo Thank you, it solved that error.

Oh wait, it didn't.
