Bug 7604 – gentoo-sources-2.4.19-r9 does not build with CryptoAPI

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Gert Thiel 2002-09-07 02:58:54 UTC]

I tried to build gentoo-sources-2.4.19-r9 with the InternationalKenerl Patch  
(CryptoAPI) and included USE=crypto.  
  
The build fails with both gcc 2.95.3 and gcc 3.2 while parsing line 197 of  
/usr/src/linux/include/linux/skbuff.h which reads:  
  
#if defined ( CONFIG_NETFILTER || CONFIG_IPSEC )  
  
gcc 2.95.3 says:  
/usr/src/linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r9/include/linux/skbuff.h:197: `defined' without  
an identifier  
/usr/src/linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r9/include/linux/skbuff.h:197: parse error  
  
gcc 3.2 says:  
/usr/src/linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r9/include/linux/skbuff.h:197:32: missing ')'  
after "defined" 
 
TIA. Gert.

I see the same issue with that ebuild - but only if the "crypto" USE flag is
enabled.

Even a change of the line in skbuff.h to "#ifdef ( ... )" doesn't help - it only
opens up other problems (gcc 2.95.3).

the line should be 
#if ( defined CONFIG_NETFILTER || defined CONFIG_IPSEC )
I believe, if you could test this and see what all goes on that would be cool...

Thanks,  
  
make bzImage worked with  
#if ( defined CONFIG_NETFILTER || defined CONFIG_IPSEC )  
  
no further tests yet - I'm compiling the modules now.  
  
Thanks. Gert.  
 
BTW. Maybe we should search for more of these wrong pre-processor statements?

Compiled kernel now in service. Good.

I think that is the only wrong one, and I ahve it corrected now with a patch in
for the latest CVS version of gentoo-sources-2.4.19-r9 :)  Thanks for your help
in testing :)
