[linux-lvm] LVM2 compilation problem

[linux-lvm] LVM2 compilation problem

[Jan Švec]

Hi,

I'm having trouble compiling the LVM2 ver. 2.2.00.07. During make
install I receive this error:

device/dev-io.c: In function `dev_get_size':
device/dev-io.c:215: `BLKGETSIZE64' undeclared (first use in this
function)
device/dev-io.c:215: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
device/dev-io.c:215: for each function it appears in.)

make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/LVM2.2.00.07/lib'
make: *** [lib] Error 2

The kernel is 2.6.0 test6. I also tried to make the link
/usr/src/linux-2.6.0-test6/include/linux -> /usr/include/linux, but then
I receive another error message:

Anyone have any idea how to solve this problem ?

The quickest and easiest way i can think of is to grab a 2.4.22
kernel, untar it, and link that include/linux directory into your
/usr/include/ dir.  As you saw, 2.6 doesn't allow kernel headers to be
used in userspace, but 2.4 still does.  It's ugly, but it works.

This is defined in the latest libdevmapper.h in the latest device-mapper
distribution - 'make install' installs it into /usr/include.

LVM2 README says:
  The device-mapper needs to be installed before compiling these LVM2 tools.

The word 'latest' is missing from that sentence!

That was it - with latest device-mapper it compiles fine. Thanks!
