[OpenAFS-devel] Xen 3 and OpenAFS 1.4.0/1rc3 build error

[Steven McCoy]

I have OpenAFS 1.3.87 built perfectly fine with Xen 2 and Linux 2.6.11.10 and running for a few months, however I'm updating to Xen 3 and bumping upto OpenAFS 1.4.0, unfortunately the compile fails as follows:

make[5]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.12.6-xenU'

Previously I had to just update the kernel asm to point to asm-xen instead of asm-xen and similarly with src/libafs/asm, and build with:

 # make ARCH=xen only_libafs

Is this still correct, any pointers?


Many thanks, and I'm looking forward to IFS support so I can use simplified & traditional chinese file names in AFS.
