Do it in the Makefile. Untested: ifneq ($(wildcard $(TOPDIR)/include/net/syncppp.h),) CFLAGS_driver_name.o += -I $(TOPDIR)/include/net else CFLAGS_driver_name.o += -I $(TOPDIR)/drivers/net/wan endif and the driver does #include "syncppp.h". - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
RE: Detecting Red Hat builds ?
For a RH7.x, at least, there is the /boot/kernel.h file generated on bootup, and the RH kernel headers include it somewhere. You can see if the corresponding symbols (coming from it) are defined, and assume redhat than. You might consider using passing -dM down to the preprocessor with the standard driver includes preamble, and look in the preprocessed output for a good clue - it may well be that there is some other redhat-specific string somewhere defined. I guess you will find smth if you egrep -i (rh|redhat).

Detecting Red Hat builds ?
Hi, How can I determine if the build my device driver is being compiled under is a standard kernel.org one or a Red Hat one ? The problem is I have a driver that includes syncppp.h which in the releases from kernel.org is in linux/drivers/net/wan/ up to and including 2.4.2 after which it moves to linux/include/net/. Can cope with this easily enough with a "#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE > KERNEL_VERSION(2,4,2)" but unfortunatly the kernel source supplied with Red Hat 7.1 reports itself as 2.4.2 but already has the syncppp changes from 2.4.3. I was shown a trick to solve a similar problem under 2.2.x but the symbol defined as a side effect of including one of the standard system headers is no longer present :-( -- Bob Dunlop FarSite Communications [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.xyzzy.clara.co.uk www.farsite.co.uk - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
