Subject: kobject.h makes lilo compile break
Date: Sat, 4 Jan 2003 14:39:31 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <005f01c2b3f6$b66ba5b0$0400a8c0@gwaihir> (raw)

Hello

When I'm compiling lilo on a machine with kernel 2.5.54, I get the following
error:


gcc -c -O2 -Wall -g `( if [ -r $ROOT/etc/lilo.defines ]; then cat
$ROOT/etc/lilo.defines; else
echo -DBDATA -DBUILTIN -DDSECS=3 -DIGNORECASE -DLBA32 -DLVM -DEVMS -DM386 -D
ONE_SHOT -DPASS160 -DREISERFS -DREWRITE_TABLE -DSOLO_CHAIN -DVARSETUP -DVERS
ION -DUNIFY; fi ) | sed 's/-D/-DLFC_/g'` `[ -r /usr/include/asm/boot.h ] &&
echo -DHAS_BOOT_H` `cat mylilo.h` lilo.c

                 from common.h:20,
                 from lilo.c:25:
/usr/include/linux/list.h:323:2: warning: #warning "don't include kernel

                 from lilo.c:25:

/usr/include/linux/kobject.h:24: confused by earlier errors, bailing out
make: *** [lilo.o] Error 1
rm temp2.img


As far as I got it, it's the kobject.h which causes the error as it includes
list.h which can't be included in userspace, but in the end the genhd.h
should work so can compile lilo.

Can someone help me how to solve that?

TIA
Cheers, Simon
