Ok, I tried it out but for some reason it doesn't take for the compile
process. This is, after export KERNEL_INCLUDE=/usr/src/linux/include/ if
I run export this declare -x KERNEL_INCLUDE="/usr/src/linux/include/" is
there. But when I run make in iproute2 I still get the
/usr/include/linux/ip.h:93:2: error: #error "Endian problem - this
didn't happen" error.
I tried to circumvent this by moving the /usr/include/linux directory to
/usr/include/linux.old and then making /usr/include/linux a soft link
pointing to /usr/src/linux/include and got a different set of errors as
follows.
You shouldn't have to do this - maybe just maybe playing with symlinks
can help build some old out of tree stuff, but you shouldn't need to do
it here.
I don't know what distros do nowadays (use LFS myself), but the very
existance of /usr/src/linux link to tree is depreciated.
Why do you need to build a new tc - unless you need the latest features
your distro should already have it & I think it should work with a new
kernel.
If you really need it, I assume you have built your own 2.6.20.3?
Where is it, what did you do? If after configuring/building it you
cleaned with make mrproper that will be too clean to build against -
make clean should be OK.
The first time I tried this I forgot to run make clean after trying to
compile it against the original /usr/include/linux/ and it actually got
past the initial endian error and died trying to compile tc. When I ran
make clean and tried I go the above error.
I would expect tc to fail - you need the git version.
Generally if I have the tar and fail a build I just delete and start
again - not saying that will help in this case.
If your distro has git already installed great - if not you can get it
from here
http://kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/git-1.5.0.5.tar.bz2
install where you want - see INSTALL
to get the iproute2 git do -
git clone
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shemminger/iproute2.git
(as one line) and it will get the latest iproute2 tree for you.
