Could you please post your .config ? Unless you've enabled dozens and
dozens of packages and have a slow machine, a build of four hours looks
a bit suspicious. If you're beginning with Buildroot, I would first
recommend you to build a basic system with just Busybox enabled, and
see how it works, before going on with building a more complicated
system.

Yes, this is a breakage in the kernel headers. The
linux-*-scsi-use-__uX-types-for-headers-exported-to-user-space.patch
patch didn't get applied to your kernel headers when building the
toolchain.

Can you please post your .config so that we know which version of the
kernel headers you're using ?

Thanks,

Thomas
