Hello, Many of the patches in subversion fail to have an effect when I apply them to a kernel, because they create headers in 'drivers/infiniband/include' which depend on being included before the like-named headers in the toplevel 'include'. Is there a step I am missing to make the headers in 'drivers/infiniband/include' get chosen for inclusion first?
Here is an example of such a patch that creates a header file that never gets included: https://openib.org/svn/gen2/branches/backport/2.6.12/gfp_6138_to_2_6_13.patch Index: linux-2.6.9/drivers/infiniband/include/linux/types.h =================================================================== --- /dev/null 1970-01-01 00:00:00.000000000 +0000 +++ linux-2.6.9/drivers/infiniband/include/linux/types.h 2006-04-02 14:40:14.000000000 +0200 @@ -0,0 +1,10 @@ +#ifndef LINUX_TYPES_BACKPORT_H +#define LINUX_TYPES_BACKPORT_H + +#include_next <linux/types.h> + +#ifdef __KERNEL__ +typedef unsigned int gfp_t; +#endif + +#endif _______________________________________________ openib-general mailing list [email protected] http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
