The problem is when I would like to compile a kernel module like vmware or gart-glx : these modules call
linux/types.h which will include asm/posix_types.h ; as gcc-2.95.1 call the wrapper before
asm/posix_types.h : it will include features.h
In features.h there is
/* Suppress kernel-name space pollution unless user expressedly asks
for it. */
#ifndef _LOOSE_KERNEL_NAMES
# define __KERNEL_STRICT_NAMES
#endif
But in linux/types.h we found
#ifndef __KERNEL_STRICT_NAMES
typedef __kernel_fd_set fd_set;
typedef __kernel_dev_t dev_t;
typedef __kernel_ino_t ino_t;
.....
As __KERNEL_STRICT_NAMES is defined by features.h : there is a tone on typedef that will not be
declared by linux/types.h and so the compilation of these modules will fail unless i remove the #include
<features.h> but this include is need for the definition of __GLIBC__
So what is the solution ? fixing kernel tree or gcc-2.95.1 ?
Thank
