hi,
I am trying to compile LiS-2.18 (downloaded from gcom.com) on,
Redhat Enterprise Linux WS release 4 ( Nahant Update 2) with kernel version
2.6.9-16.EL .
I struck with an error while compiling LiS-2.18.
Error :
/usr/src/LiS-2.18/head/linux-mdep.c : 1001: error: struct has no member
named 'refcount'
I looked at LiS-2.18/head/linux-mdep.c ;the following line
printk(">> i->i_cdev: [EMAIL PROTECTED]/%d/%x \"%s\"\n",
inode->i_cdev,
K_ATOMIC_READ(&inode->i_cdev->kobj.refcount),
DEV_TO_INT(inode->i_cdev->dev),
(inode->i_cdev->owner ?
inode->i_cdev->owner->name : "No-Owner")) ;
will be executed only for kernel versions > 2.5.
I looked at lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/include/linux/kobject.h where
'struct kobject ' has no member with name 'refcount', i surprised, why LiS
is referring an undefined member in kobject.
Previously, I worked with the same LiS-2.18 on ES3 on kenel 2.4. It is lack
of troubles bcas the above code is for kernels > 2.5.
I went through gcom.com, they gave LiS-2.18 is compatible with 2.6 kernels
also. Can I know whether LiS-2.18 is compatible with the 2.6 kernel or not.
Can any one provide a solution to overcome this trouble.
regards,
kishore.
