[CentOS] Re: Get error msg if try to use kernel makefile / build kernel - fix

MikeW <mw_phil@...> writes:

Using the new method for building a standalone kernel module (although seems to happen with the traditional way as well) I get "mach_mpspec.h: No such file or directory"

Same result if I try to do a kernel 'make'.

Subsequently I get MAX_MP_BUSSES and MAX_IRQ_SOURCES undeclared.

This should surely work 'out of the box' with Centos ?

Any ideas about what's missing ?

Thanks, MikeW

Sorted it by adding -I$(KERNELDIR)/include/asm-i386/mach-default to my make CFLAGS.

Already had KERNELDIR set to /lib/modules/2.6.9-42.0.3.EL/build

Even if this isn't the 'correct' fix, it seems to work ...
