Not all of them, only select ones specified in the Kbuild file. If these structures and defines are meant for kernel-only, or only partially so, you should either annotate linux/sctp.h with appropriate __KERNEL__ ifdefs, or remove the header file from include/linux/Kbuild You cannot remove the file from Kbuild if it somehow is required by your SCTP user.h header file, for example. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
