ALSA 1.0.13 + 2.6.19rc5 configuration/compilation error

ALSA 1.0.13 + 2.6.19rc5 configuration/compilation error

[Krzysztof Helt]

Hello,

I tried to build an alsa 1.0.13 with kernel 2.6.19rc5 for ARM.

Configuration worked ok, but then compilation failed. I used
these commands:

./configure ARCH=arm --with-cross=arm-linux- \
--with-kernel=/usr/src/linux-2.6.18

make ARCH=arm

The error returned:

make -C /usr/src/linux-2.6.18 SUBDIRS=/usr/src/alsa-driver-1.0.13
 CPP="arm-linux-gcc -E" CC="arm-linux-gcc " modules

I traced the problem back to configuration script. It uses the
linux/config.h in few tests programs and this file does not exist
in the $KERNEL/include/linux directory.
Here is a snippet from configuration log:

I hope someone can point how to fix it (or fix it).

I don't suppose you thought to read the "SUPPORTED_KERNELS" in the 
alsa-driver tree?


It states:
  - Vanilla 2.6.18 or earlier

2.6.19* kernel is supported on HG tree, but not in 1.0.13.
