Bugzilla Bug 130933

Hello,

while testing linux-headers-2.6.16 on my PPC64 machine I ran into this problem
while compiling x11-base/xorg-server-1.0.2-r3:


[...]
In file included from ../../../hw/xfree86/os-support/xf86_OSlib.h:756,
                 from xf86Configure.c:45:
./compiler.h:1086:25: error: asm/memory.h: No such file or directory
[...]


seems like the file has moved or something like that..


this comes from a system running linux-headers-2.6.11-r5:
$ find /usr/include/ -name memory.h
/usr/include/asm/memory.h
/usr/include/memory.h
/usr/include/asm-ppc64/memory.h
$


and this is a system running linux-headers-2.6.16:
# find /usr/include/ -name memory.h
/usr/include/linux/memory.h
/usr/include/memory.h
#


plasmaroo: I assigned this bug to you as it seems header releated. feel free to
reassign if it does not 'belong' to you ;-)

a few lines before and after the error

Hmm, fun, if you touch /usr/include/asm/memory.h does that fix it?

Same issue with x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati-6.5.8.0:

Try that please :)

yes, that fixed the error.

Sorry, I should have read that...

So, there should be an empty memory.h included in linux-headers?

hrm.. I suppose the better solution is to remove the include line on ppc64?

Yeah, but that might break things with 2.6.11 from what I can recall
(dostrow?). So I'll just make a dummy header.

Fixed in 2.6.16-3.

plasmaroo: that dummy file got removed? a recent install of
linux-headers-2.6.16 did not include it.

No, looks like something got changed somewhere, not quite sure what (maybe
kernel-2.eclass or epatch), and the dummy file wasn't being made correctly by
the patch. Fixed in 2.6.16-4, InCVS.
