You're trying to use a kernel data structure in a user-space program.
Don't. The definitions in that header are inside #ifdef __KERNEL__ and
so the provided userspace headers remove that part.
someone've said the exact same thing, and he said that I can add the -
D__KERNEL__ to the compilation options,
but I can't see any #ifdef __KERNEL__ macro in that header(<asm/
semaphore.h>).
Is my header differ from yours?
It's because the userspace headers have been processed with unifdef to
remove any sections which are inside #ifdef __KERNEL__, since userspace
apps are not supposed to see those sections.
I'm not sure why you want to use a semaphore in a userspace program.
Even if you can get it to compile, they definitely won't function
properly. Aside from the legal issues (using internal kernel code like
that would make your program a derived work of the kernel and thus
covered under the GPL).
