Hi Paul, A hack we did when building a ported WiMax driver against 2.6.19 was to merge the two asm-p.*pc directories.
Below is a snippet from one of our build scripts that does this. Assuming KERNEL_SRC_PATH is set to point to your kernel source... #------------------ if [ ! -d $KERNEL_SRC_PATH/include/asm-ppc-merged ]; then echo "Creating a merged include/asm for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc" mkdir $KERNEL_SRC_PATH/include/asm-ppc-merged cp -r $KERNEL_SRC_PATH/include/asm-powerpc/* $KERNEL_SRC_PATH/include/asm-ppc-merged cp -r $KERNEL_SRC_PATH/include/asm-ppc/* $KERNEL_SRC_PATH/include/asm-ppc-merged fi echo "Symlinking the merged include/asm" cd $KERNEL_SRC_PATH/include rm asm ln -s asm-ppc-merged asm #------------------ Based on this order, files from arch/ppc win but missing files will come from arch/powerpc. You could try it out. Mileage may vary, especially newer than 2.6.23 since there may be device tree dependent stuff that gets into the merged directory. We stopped using this hack for kernel 2.6.23 and newer since we migrated to arch/powerpc for 2.6.23 and later (presently using 2.6.25) so I really don't know whether or not it will work for you. If you use the symlinked shadow source tree facility of the Xenomai build with your kernel, then use "-rs" instead of "-r" in the "cp"'s above. Otherwise just use "-r" as shown above.

Any tips on this would be most welcome. --snip!-- -- Regards, Darcy -------------- Darcy L.
