Description Reinhard Max 2006-02-06 15:18:46 UTC 
... this breaks the build of the zaptel modules:

  CC [M]  /usr/src/packages/BUILD/zaptel-1.2.2/obj/default/ztd-eth.o
In file included from /usr/src/linux-2.6.16-rc2-2/include/linux/skbuff.h:27,

Olaf?
Comment 3 Olaf Hering 2006-02-08 12:24:03 UTC 
does the package really need the highmem.h?
Comment 4 Olaf Hering 2006-02-08 12:42:07 UTC 
Our tree misses some symlink apparently.

lrwxrwxrwx  1 olaf users 64 2006-02-04 13:16 arch/powerpc/include/asm -> /home/olaf/kernel/olh/ppc64/linux-2.6.16-rc2-olh/include/asm-ppc/
Comment 5 Olaf Hering 2006-02-08 15:23:33 UTC 
if I do a normal ARCH=powerpc build, then arch/powerpc/include is in the serch path.
it points to arch/powerpc/include/asm -> /dev/shm/r/linux-2.6.16-rc2/include/asm-ppc/

for the time being, we may just move/copy highmem.h over to asm-powerpc/
its just the question where to do that.
