There's a lot of files and I don't want to muddy up the discussion with too many details.
And for sure, this is not a problem with the upstream qemu. I'm working on adding a target, and this is just what I'm experiencing. As for my target, it has includes that correspond to finds within sub-directories of qemu components, and I just mean that the include directives are only the file name (no path prefix), but such file can be found only in folders other than the include directory. One example is qemu.h; it is in linux-user. You can get the compilation to find exactly just that file, but it includes other files, and it isn't reasonable to edit anything outside of my own architecture implementation. I'm wondering if perhaps anything that makes an include to linux-user would need to be moved into the user target source set, because currently it is in the shared.
