problems compiling scsi_ioctl on kernels later 2.4.1

problems compiling scsi_ioctl on kernels later 2.4.1

[Erik van Asselt]

i tried to compile linux-2.4.3-pre4  on a redhat and suse machine with
different gcc's egcs 1.1.2 ,gcc 2.96 and gcc 2.95
but all get stuck on  compiling scsi_ioctl in kernel or as module
does anyone have an idea?
machine's :  -pentium 66 (with bug :=) running suse 7.0
                  -amd athlon 1000 with promise fasttrak running redhat
7.0

I did link the usr/include/scsi to usr/srs/linux/include/scsi
isn't that the right way for compiling the new kernel?

i don't understand how it got corrupted but it looks like i'm missing a lot of things if
i compare it to your scsi_ioctl file
I will use your scsi_ioctl or i will untar kernel  2.4.2 again without patch pre4
i hope it will work
