Hi Stephen, Can you pull the following into linux-next, please? Here's the first part of the first installment of patches to clean up the kernel header files and sort out the inclusion recursion problems. The patches can be found here: http://git.infradead.org/users/dhowells/linux-headers.git at the: uapi-preliminary tag. This batch is just the static fixes to things and can be divided into three groups: (1) Fixes that should probably be applied anyway. Tag: uapi-fixes Fixes for ELF, a loop in Sparc's headers and a separation for MIPS's Kbuild. (2) sys/param.h cleanup. Tag: uapi-params Make MN10300, M32R and FRV use asm-generic/param.h. (3) Guard cleanup and simple rearrangement. Tag: uapi-preliminary Add missing header file guards and split __KERNEL__ combo guards to make them easier for the UAPI splitter to handle. Do a little rearrangement of some headers to make them more amenable to the UAPI split (some need the UAPI headers #including in the middle of the file, after some definitions have been made). Could you also the second part into linux-next at this time? That involves some scripted stuff and may need regenerating. You can see those patches from the uapi-preliminary tag up to the uapi-prep tag in the GIT tree. That then would set the stage for Linus to apply the UAPI disintegration patches (uapi-prep -> uapi-post-split) after -rc1 if he's willing. However, those definitely *will* need regenerating. I have tried building it with the defconfigs for the following arches: alpha, arm, blackfin, frv, h8300, m32r, m68k, mips, mn10300, powerpc, s390, sh, sparc, x86 (i386 and x86_64) and xtensa.
