Subject: 2.6.27rc1 installs a broken /usr/include/linux/videodev2.h
Date: Mon, 04 Aug 2008 20:24:11 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4897494B.1010307@hhs.nl> (raw)
Hi All,
When doing "make headers_install" 2.6.27rc1 install a broken
/usr/include/linux/videodev2.h
The problem are the 2 userspace lines of the following part of videodev2.h:
#ifdef __KERNEL__
#include <linux/time.h> /* need struct timeval */
#include <linux/compiler.h> /* need __user */
#else
#define __user
#include <sys/time.h>
#endif
2.6.27rc1 seems to handle __user usage in userspace itself now, simply by
removing __user + whitespace after it resulting in the following in userspace
for the 2 lines in the userspace of the if else above:
#define #include <sys/time.h>
The fix for 2/6/27rc1 is to simply remove the "#define __user" line, but I
wonder how that will effect our usage with older kernels?
Regards,
Hans
