Warning: cardmgr.c Patch - Linux 2.2.14pre9 patch to /usr/src/linux/include/scsi/scsi.h adds spinlocks

Built a 2.2.14pre9 kernel and had problems compiling pcmcia-cs-3.0.14. Then I grabbed pcmcia-cs-3.1.4 and had the same problem. This problem did not exist with 2.2.14pre8. make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/pcmcia-cs-3.1.4/cardmgr' cc -MD -O -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -pipe -I../include -I/usr/src/linux/include -I../modules -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/X11/include -I/usr/X11R6/include/X11 -c cardmgr.c In file included from cardmgr.c:201: /usr/src/linux/include/scsi/scsi.h:21: parse error before `scsi_malloc_lock' /usr/src/linux/include/scsi/scsi.h:21: warning: data definition has no type or storage class make[1]: *** [cardmgr.o] Error 1 I took a look at scsi/scsi.h and some other files in the kernel 2.2.14pre9 patch which had spinlocks added. The end result is to modify cardmgr.c and include the proper spinlocks.h file for the kernel version. Apply the following patch to cardmgr and it will compile with 2.2.14pre9: # diff -urN cardmgr/cardmgr.c.orig cardmgr/cardmgr.c --- cardmgr/cardmgr.c.orig Tue Nov 9 00:37:34 1999 +++ cardmgr/cardmgr.c Sat Nov 27 23:49:12 1999 @@ -198,8 +198,13 @@ #ifdef __linux__ #include -#include #define VERSION(v,p,s) (((v)<<16)+(p<<8)+s) +#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE >= VERSION(2,3,18) +#include +#elif LINUX_VERSION_CODE >= VERSION(2,1,95) +#include +#endif /* version >= 2.1.95 */ +#include #if (LINUX_VERSION_CODE < VERSION(2,1,126)) #define SCSI_DISK0_MAJOR SCSI_DISK_MAJOR #endif

1. This is really a bug in the header, not in PCMCIA by David Hinds, 1999, Nov 29
