Kernel compilation error for cloneconfig in SuSE 10.1
Hello Since the non-gpl-kernel modules are missing in SuSE 10.1, I tried to build libafs of the OpenAFS-package from source for i386. This requires the configured and at least partially built kernel source in /usr/src/linux. So I got the package kernel-source with YaST. uname -r says: 2.6.16.13-4-default. gcc -v : gcc version 4.1.0 (SUSE Linux) In /usr/src/linux I run
make cloneconfig make module modules_prepare as root. This results in the following compilation error:
CHK /usr/src/linux-2.6.16.21-0.13/include/linux/version.h CC arch/i386/kernel/asm-offsets.s In file included from ./include/asm/system.h:5, from ./include/asm/processor.h:18, from ./include/asm/thread_info.h:17, from ./include/linux/thread_info.h:21, from ./include/linux/preempt.h:10, from ./include/linux/spinlock.h:50, from ./include/linux/capability.h:45, from ./include/linux/sched.h:7, from arch/i386/kernel/asm-offsets.c:7: ./include/linux/kernel.h:10:20: error: stdarg.h: No such file or directory In file included from ./include/asm/system.h:5, from ./include/asm/processor.h:18, from ./include/asm/thread_info.h:17, from ./include/linux/thread_info.h:21, from ./include/linux/preempt.h:10, from ./include/linux/spinlock.h:50, from ./include/linux/capability.h:45, from ./include/linux/sched.h:7, from arch/i386/kernel/asm-offsets.c:7: ./include/linux/kernel.h:104: error: expected declaration specifiers or ‘...’ before ‘va_list’ ./include/linux/kernel.h:108: error: expected declaration specifiers or ‘...’ before ‘va_list’ ./include/linux/kernel.h:112: error: expected declaration specifiers or ‘...’ before ‘va_list’ ./include/linux/kernel.h:117: error: expected declaration specifiers or ‘...’ before ‘va_list’ ./include/linux/kernel.h:131: error: expected declaration specifiers or ‘...’ before ‘va_list’ make[1]: *** [arch/i386/kernel/asm-offsets.s] Error 1 make: *** [prepare0] Error 2 Does anyone know how to fix this problem or is there somewhere a binary version of libafs for SuSE 10.1?

It sounds almost like your gcc installation is messed up.

Hi Stephan,
that's where i found stdarg.h on my system (Suse 10.1):
stephan@owl:/usr/lib/gcc> find . -name '*stdarg*' ./i586-suse-linux/4.1.0/include/stdarg.h
Thanks for this. It looks exactly the same on my box. So the problem is not yet fixed. Do you have any suggestion how to include these sources. Apparently there is no problem when compiling other targets with this gcc. Regards David Keller

Have you got everything installed (development libraries for instance) for building the kernel? I've just repeated your exercise of make cloneconfig make modules modules_prepare, and it works fine. (SUSE 10.1, kernel 2.6.16.11-4-smp). /Per Jessen, Zürich

yes, I think so: kernel kernel-sources gcc libgcc binutils and so on The "missing" header is in fact there.

make cloneconfig make modules modules_prepare,
and it works fine. (SUSE 10.1, kernel 2.6.16.11-4-smp).
May it be a different setting of the PATH or some other environment variable? My installation comes out of the box, I just installed it. Regards David Keller

Mine too - or at least with vary few changes. Try doing a complete make first, then the "make modules modules_prepare". I think I've seen something similar before which was due to something not having been set up correctly until I'd done a full build. /Per Jessen, Zürich
Hi, I finally resolved the problem: It seem's something was screwed up with my environment variables, $CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH and $LIBRARY_PATH were defined. After removing them the kernel compiles fine. Thanks to all David Keller
