Re: 2.6.31.1 BUG #include <asm/bitsperlong.h>

[Bernard Pidoux]

The only file in asm-x86 directory is asm-offsets.h

This is a Mandriva 2009.1 Spring distro.
I checked that it was the same on two other machines with the same 
new installed distro.

I will copy bitsperlong.h into asm-x86 as suggested.

Should other files be present in the above directory ?

Should I send a bug report to Mandriva ?

Thank you all for your help.

The correct fix is to include the missing bitsperlong in
the asm-x86 directory.
In other words your kernel headers are broken.

Looking at latest kernel we do export bitsperlong.h.
So see if you can find a fix for your broken kernel headers.
