User files should never directly access kernel headers, because they are postprocessed in various ways in order to get files that are valid in user space, e.g. __user annotations are removed. The three possible sources for kernel headers are: /usr/include - system provided headers, may be older than the running kernel /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build/usr/include - user space headers for the currently running kernel $(KERNELDIR)/usr/include - user space headers from a configured kernel tree after 'make headers_install' Arnd <>< -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
