Package: apt-show-versions
Version: 2.6.21.3
When we configure the kernal using the command "make menuconfig" we got the
following error
scripts/mod/sumversion.c: 384: error: 'PATH_MAX' undeclared (first use in
this function)
scripts/mod/sumversion.c: 384: error: 'PATH_MAX' undeclared (Each
undeclared variable is reported only once for each function it appears in)
Source Code which has error in following function in the highlighted line of
code.
void get_src_version(const char *modname, char sum[], unsigned sumlen)
{
void *file;
unsigned long len;
struct md4_ctx md;
char *sources, *end, *fname;
const char *basename;
char filelist[PATH_MAX + 1];
char *modverdir = getenv("MODVERDIR");
if (!modverdir)
modverdir = ".";
/* Source files for module are in .tmp_versions/modname.mod,
after the first line. */
if (strrchr(modname, '/'))
basename = strrchr(modname, '/') + 1;
else
basename = modname;
sprintf(filelist, "%s/%.*s.mod", modverdir,
(int) strlen(basename) - 2, basename);
file = grab_file(filelist, &len);
if (!file) {
warn("could not find versions for %s\n", filelist);
return;
}
sources = strchr(file, '\n');
if (!sources) {
warn("malformed versions file for %s\n", modname);
goto release;
}
sources++;
end = strchr(sources, '\n');
if (!end) {
warn("bad ending versions file for %s\n", modname);
goto release;
}
*end = '\0';
md4_init(&md);
while ((fname = strsep(&sources, " ")) != NULL) {
if (!*fname)
continue;
if (!parse_source_files(fname, &md))
goto release;
}
md4_final_ascii(&md, sum, sumlen);
release:
release_file(file, len);
}
* Suggested Solution:*
We suggest to declare this global variable "PATH_MAX" somewhere in the
global configuration file.
We are using Debian GNU/Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.21.3
