Subject: [PATCH] linux-2.4.1-pre9/include/linux/acpi.h broke acpid compilation
Date: Sun, 21 Jan 2001 00:23:19 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20010121002319.A8447@adam.yggdrasil.com> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 741 bytes --]
linux-2.4.1-pre9/include/linux/acpi.h contains declares the
routine acpi_get_rsdp_ptr returning the kernel-only type "u64", without
bracketing the declaration in "#ifdef __KERNEL__...#endif". Consequently,
a user level program that attempts to include <linux/acpi.h>, such as
acpid, gets a compilation error. The following patch fix the problem
by stretching an earlier "#ifdef __KERNEL__...#endif" area to cover
the acpi_get_rsdp_ptr declaration.
