I exchanged a couple of mails with Thiemo Seufer who tried to help solve this problem. It appears that include/asm-mips/reg.h is automatically generated at compile time, by the arch/mips/Makefile (prepare target). (I use a 2.6.x kernel). In fact, I'm trying to generate a cross-compilation chain for MIPS (using Dan Kegel's crosstools). So, I need the kernel headers, but I'm not able to compile the kernel since I'm generating the cross-compiler itself. When I try to generate the 'prepare' target in the main directory of the kernel source tree, it starts compiling files in scripts/ using the MIPS compiler (which isn't available at this time). How can I generate this include/asm-mips/reg.h file (and possibly other automatically generated includes) without starting kernel compilation ? Of course, I provide a .config file to the kernel.
