[Tipc-discussion] issues building tipc against 2.6.5

[Chris F. <cfr...@no...>]

I downloaded the latest CVS version and tried building against a 2.6.5 
x86 tree.  Got a bunch of errors (see below) wrt include files.

The issue seems to be that irq_vectors.h is actually located in 
asm/mach-default, which isn't in the search path.

Has anyone managed to build this?

Chris

The 1.2-line of TIPC os only maintained for the 2.4-kernel. If you want 
to run
TIPC on 2.6, you should use the 1.3-line, which is now approaching the same
stability (we are not quite there yet). Note that the API and insmod 
parameters
have changed in the 1.3-line, but you will like the changes, I think.

Okay, I think I figured it out.  It was not obvious to me that I needed 
to build in source/unstable.


A couple comments:

1) I think the "clean" line in the Makefile should read

rm -f net/tipc/*.ko

and not

rm -f /net/tipc/*.ko


2) The duplicated Makefiles in source/unstable and 
source/unstable/net/tipc is kind of grungy.

Yes, of course.

These files don't have the same purpose. The one under unstable/net/tipc 
is for use when
TIPC is integrated into its right place in the kernel, and can not be 
used at all
for standalone build.  This file must be kept as "standard" as possible 
to please the
kernel guys.

The other one is an optional support for standalone build of the module, and
must be kept outside the tipc directory because of its interaction with 
the Linux module
build support. (This basically expects to find a file with the name 
"Makefile" under
"SUB_DIRS", and since we already have a file with that name under 
net/tipc I had
to use a different SUB_DIRS.)

You will find more issues when you start looking at the code, but it is 
improving
by the day :-)
