There are 2 solutions to this that I can think of: |
| 11 |
1) add "-I${S}/include" to HOSTCFLAGS in the top level makefile in the |
| 12 |
kernel source tree; or |
| 13 |
2) pass a whole new HOSTCFLAGS variable to make whenever you build in |
| 14 |
the main linux source tree. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
I'm actually testing out approach 2 on my system right now. I just |
| 17 |
copied the HOSTCFLAGS variable out of the top level Makefile and tacked |
| 18 |
on -I${S}/include, and then passed that back into the Makefile. |
| 19 |
|

The reason I want to make absolutely certain that the current linux |
| 21 |
source tree is used is because that way a) no conflicting headers are |
| 22 |
used, and b) so that the linux package can be built w/o even having any |
| 23 |
linux package installed at all. |
