Re: [uml-devel] compile problem

[Jiri Olsa <olsajiri@gmail.com>]

Hi,

<asm/types.h> declares u32 only if there's __KERNEL__ defined, which is not case
of UML compile.

I found out the ptrace-abi.h is changed in the 2.6.24.1 and differs with the Linus
tree among others with adding following structure:

struct ptrace_bts_config {
        /* requested or actual size of BTS buffer in bytes */
        u32 size;
        /* bitmask of below flags */
        u32 flags;
        /* buffer overflow signal */
        u32 signal;
        /* actual size of bts_struct in bytes */
        u32 bts_size;
};

so thats where the u32 cames from in the Linus' tree.

Now when I know why my Linus' tree wont compile, I'd like to know why yours does :)
(I used your patch regarding the foo function errors as well...)
Maybe I have smth wrong with my headers, I use following symlinks:

/usr/include/linux -> $(kernel)/include/linux
/usr/include/asm -> $(kernel)/include/asm-x86
/usr/include/asm-generic -> $(kernel)/include/asm-generic


thanks,
jirka
