Package: module-assistant
Version: 0.9.4
Trees created using m-a fakesource don't seem to get the correct
compiler detected. This is probably because include/linux/compile.h
doesn't exist in fakesource trees, right?
The attached patch is RFC since I'm not sure about the implications of
copying compile.h from -headers into the source tree. It works for me,
compiles loop-aes-{source,ciphers-source} correctly, but I'm not sure
whether it's a correct solution.
>From what I can gather the kernel uses the compile.h header only for
the information value, to include version, build date etc. in strings,
but does not use it for conditional compilation. So, I suppose there
would be little or no harm including it.
cheers,
Max
