klibc - Oct 2005 - getting dmraid to use klibc

[please CC me on replies, I'm not subscribed]

Hi,
I'm trying to get dmraid 1.0.0rc9 [0] to compile with --enable-klibc,
however I
have some troubles with mkfifo defined in /usr/lib/klibc/include/sys/stat.h.

/usr/lib/klibc/include/sys/stat.h: In function 'mkfifo':
/usr/lib/klibc/include/sys/stat.h:28: error: 'S_IFMT' undeclared (first
use in
this function)

after investigating a little I found out that <features.h> is being
included (is this
right?) and defines __GLIBC__ and thus S_IFMT is not being defined from
/usr/include/linux/stat.h:10

of course this fixes the problem in features.h:291

#ifndef __KLIBC__
#define __GLIBC__   2
#define __GLIBC_MINOR__ 3
#endif

but I'm not sure whether this is the right approach and/or something should
be
changed in klibc/glibc/dmraid

thanks in advance,
filippo

the computer.
Beware of bugs in the above code; I have only proved it correct, not

Looks like you're using a broken set of Linux headers.  The claim that 
you're including /usr/include/linux/stat.h is a good indication of that.

How is your klibc installation set up?
