From: Tom Enderes <[email protected]>
The kernel build failed on cygwin hosts, because cygwin has slightly
different typedefs compared to linux:
scripts/mod/file2alias.c:518: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete
type
Two files, scripts/mod/file2alias.c and scripts/mod/modpost.h, were
modified as follows:
Whever __CYGWIN__ is defined, __uint32 is defined as __uint32_t (instead
of uint_32_t) and the missing ElfxxSection definitions are added.
These changes have been tested both on cygwin 1.5.24, hostcc=gcc 3.4.4
and on FC5, hostcc=gcc 4.1.1-1. Any tests on cygwin, with and without
this change, were executed with the following set for make:
HOST_LOADLIBES="-lcurses -lintl".
