OK -- this should be trivial, but I'm getting lost in all the makefile
variables. A friend was trying to build a new kernel to include
masquerading for VPN. He had problems and asked me to help.
He said he:
Did the patches for the VPN (there were two of them)
Made configuration file
Did "make dep"
Did "make clean"
Did "make"
------------------------------
He got the following error message immediately from "make":
------------------------------
gcc -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -o scripts/split-include
scripts/split-include.c
In file included from /usr/include/errno.h:36,
from scripts/split-include.c:26:
/usr/include/bits/errno.h:25: linux/errno.h: No such file or directory
make: *** [scripts/split-include] Error 1
------------------------------
The line in /usr/include/bits/errno.h said "#include <linux/errno.h>"
and there exist the following:
----------
[root@scrappy linux]# locate errno.h|grep linux
/usr/lib/bcc/include/linux/errno.h
/usr/lib/bcc/include/linuxmt/errno.h
/usr/src/linux-2.2.16/include/asm-i386/errno.h
/usr/src/linux-2.2.16/include/linux/errno.h
----------
also: /usr/src/linux is a symlink to /usr/src/linux-2.2.16
I would have expected the include-path to include /usr/src/linux/include,
so why didn't it find the "linux/errno.h" that's in the list above.
This has gottab be real simple -- It's been a year or so since I last
messed with any kernels, but I remember it being straightforward and
working fine.
What obvious point am I missing here?
