Thanks for the reply, however, without forcing it, this will put the
files (as you say) into usr/include/linux/ - note the usr/ prefix?
Just to be clear - I'm having trouble compiling the kernel itself.
Something in the compile wants a file
include/linux/aufs_type.h
but I'm only copying across
include/uapi/linux/aufs_type.h
(and then patching and calling make)
A grep of the code (excluding docs and large header_install line)
fs/aufs/Makefile:ccflags-y += -include ${M}/../../include/linux/aufs_type.h
fs/aufs/Makefile:ccflags-y += -include ${srctree}/include/linux/aufs_type.h
fs/aufs/branch.c: * cf. AUFS_MAX_NAMELEN in include/linux/aufs_type.h
include/uapi/linux/Kbuild:header-y += aufs_type.h
So, to the eye it seems like the fs/aufs makefile wants to see the
include file somehow get copied across from include/uapi/linux to
include/linux - how does that process happen?
Note, I have quite probably broken the build process with some
additional patches, but grateful for a leg up understanding what is
*supposed* to be happening so that I can try and understand what!
Many thanks
