Hi all,
I'm trying to patch 2.6.6 to add support for the 4GB user space/ 4GB
kernel space split. The patch I have is against 2.6.6-B7, whatever that
is. It does not apply cleanly on vanilla 2.6.6.
I have shaked, twisted and hit the patch into place, until it now
applies cleanly on stock vanilla 2.6.6 (attached). There are still a few
rough edges on it. However, that does not appear to be the problem. The
problem is that when I try to compile this kernel using the Debian tools
(make-kpkg), I get compilation error ON THE DOCS. It claims that
"direct_strncpy_from_user" is defined twice in kernel_api.sgml. I tried
tracing it back to the source, and found nothing meaningful -
direct_strncpy_from_user is only defined once there.
At this point I am at a loss. I don't know how the SGMLs are even
generated, why it thinks it is defined twice, etc. I don't even know how
to shut down the documentation generation - I don't need it. I know I
can compile without the Debian make-kpkg, but I would really rather
generate an easy to install package.
Ideas, anyone?
Shachar
