Here's a patch to allow users to install the pvfs2-client without
configuring a kernel to build against.
This really depends on how tightly coupled the client and pvfs2 module
are, if they are so interdependent on one another, then the other side
of this argument should be applied
The pvfs2-client and kernel module are co-dependent.
(remove the ability to compile the
client stuff without configuring a kernel).
I think the Makefile already does that, no? You can't do make kmod
with configuring the kernel first. The client admin applications
(pvfs2-ls, pvfs2-touch, etc.) don't require either the kernel module
or the pvfs2-client daemon, and as such don't require the kernel
headers.
