Re: CMan Build Issue

[Jayson Vantuyl <jvantuyl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Eek.  This is probably worth investigating.  I'll let you know what I come up with.

This is particularly important for people who virtualize their clusters, as Xen doesn't run on anything newer than 2.6.18 yet (and that includes the forthcoming 3.0.5 release).

Out of curiosity, how does this figure into the kernel merge of DLM and GFS?  I've seen them in newer kernels but been kind of afraid to turn anything on.  Can I build the old cluster suite against a kernel containing DLM and still expect it to work?

Any ideas?

Hi Jayson,

Back in February, I updated the STABLE branch of cvs from the older

kernels up to the newer ones.  That's probably why it doesn't compile in

2.6.18, but should in the 2.6.20 and 21 series.  This particular change to cnxman.c can be seen here:

http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/cluster/cman-kernel/src/Attic/cnxman.c.diff?r1=1.42.2.12.4.1.2.14&r2=1.42.2.12.4.1.2.15&cvsroot=cluster&f=h

You can always revert that change if you need to stick with the older

kernel.  However, there were a bunch of things changed, and they might

also give you problems with the older kernel.

For a complete list of changes I made, please see:
