-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, when compiling glibc(2.9, 20081208 snapshot) with linux 2.6.28-rc8 headers I get a lot of errors like this one: In file included from /tmp/toolchain-build/rootfs/usr/include/asm/byteorder.h:49, from /tmp/toolchain-build/rootfs/usr/include/linux/atalk.h:4, from ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/netatalk/at.h:25, from ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sa_len.c:22: /tmp/toolchain-build/rootfs/usr/include/linux/byteorder.h:8:3: error: #error Fix asm/byteorder.h to define one endianness About a month ago arch/sparc/include/asm/byteorder.h was changed to include the new linux/byteorder.h instead of the old linux/byteorder/big_endian.h. The new one panics if both __LITTLE_ENDIAN and __BIG_ENDIAN are defined. But since glibc's string/endian.h(/usr/include/endian.h) always defines __BIG_ENDIAN and __LITTLE_ENDIAN it may occur, depending on the includes, that both are defined when asm/byteorder.h is included. My assumption is that asm/byteorder.h should ensure that only one of these is defined. After applying the patch below compiling glibc works again. But when compiling the kernel I get In file included from drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_dfs.c:7: drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_def.h:1487:7: warning: "__LITTLE_ENDIAN" is not defined Which sould be okay...I think the #elif should really be an #elif defined but that's another thing ;) Is this the right solution or did I miss anything?
