Re: [Qemu-devel] qemu-0.8.1 compile errors on x86_64 suse linux 10.1

The following message was forwarded to me:

-------------------------
Hello all,

there's a problem compiling usb-linux.c on SuSE 10.1 with the standard
kernel headers (kernel 2.6.16.13-4-default from uname -r).

I'm using gcc 3.4.6 and the problem is an include file is missing in
usb-linux.c

The missing h-file is <linux/compiler.h>. That inclusion needs to be
written before the inclusion of <linux/usbdevice_fs.h>

Adding this include file the compiler is happy and all is ok.

regards,
Fausto
-------------------------------------------------------

This solution works.  So it looks like the problem is simply a missing
header include in qemu-0.8.1 version.   It has nothing to do with
recompiling glibc, or downloading different kernel source, or any other such
non-sense.
