KSRC/include/linux/version.h is presented on my local kernel tree. But when I type 'make mrproper' I see the following output line: CLEAN .config .config.old include/asm .version include/linux/autoconf.h include/linux/version.h include/linux/utsrelease.h Module.symvers So, I don't agree with your point. > As to your question - I think the difference is that in /usr/include are > installed the headers for the current running kernel, and in > $KSRC/include/linux reside the headers whit which you build the a new > kernel. But why my modules uses headers from KSRC/include/linux instead of /usr/include/linux? I clarify it because my OLD version of /usr/include/linux/version.h has UTS_RELEASE macro, whereas KSRC/include/linux/version.h (NEW kernel) hasn't one: kbuild complains, when I try to use UTS_RELEASE without including utsrelease.h. I wonder why system holds old version of kernel headers in /usr/include/linux. > Someone correct me if I'm wrong on that. > > Best regards, > Konstantin Boyanov -- Nikolay N.
