older kernel (2.6.12) compile issue #30

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
I'm trying to compile compcache for an older kernel on an DNS-323 network 
attached storage 
embedded arm device.  Since I needed gcc 3.4.6 I went the route of chrooting 
into Debian Etch to 
install gcc kernel-packages (compile dependencies, etc).  Built the dlink 
kernel (from DNS-323 
Firmware 1.06, a modified 2.6.12) then tried compile compcache.

(After adding the symlink //lib/modules/2.6.12.6-arm1/build -> 
/usr/src/linux-2.6.12.6)

Results:

My attempts so far:
typedef gfp_t -> removed the error at least...
manually adding some macros to kernel.h -> fixed the div_roundup related errors

Are these errors just because I have an older kernel or is this something wrong 
with my includes?

Any ideas on how to resolve this?

I think it should not be too difficult to get it working on 2.6.12. I will try 
to
look into this soon.

Fixed. Please clone hg repository to test the fix:

hg clone http://compcache.googlecode.com/hg/ compcache

The proper fix would be to not use an ancient kernel ;-).  Here are the errors 
for the record, though.

Yeah, best thing to do is not to use these pre-historic kernels.

Anyway, these errors are strange since the 'missing' functions are defined in
compache/compat.h and sub-projects/allocators/xvmalloc-kmod/compat.h. I also 
tested
by compiling against 2.6.12 using gcc 3.4.6.

I had the same issue trying to build compcache 0.5.4 for the Nokia N8x0, kernel 
2.6.21 (omap branch)
I finally solved it by adding some defines to "compat.h" files. See attached 
patch (against compcache 0.5.4)
