I have talked with other people at my work place and it seams this bug is on Linux kernel headers. So I have sent an email to the person that possible introduced the problem in Linux kernel 2.6.26, YOSHIFUJI Hideaki. Follow the text I have sent to YOSHIFUJI Hideaki: ====== Hi. About the new file linux/pim.h and the definitions of PIM in linux 2.6.26. The "#define PIM_REGISTER 1" was in file mroute.h and was protected by "#ifdef __KERNEL__" until version 2.5.25. In version 2.6.26 this define is in file pim.h but is no longer protected by a "#ifdef __KERNEL__". Is this change intentional? This change breaks the compilation of software from the project www.xorp.org. In the file mrt/include/netinet/pim.h for the xorp software they define PIM messages types and use this code: /* * PIM message types */ #define PIM_HELLO 0x0 /* PIM-SM and PIM-DM */ #define PIM_REGISTER 0x1 /* PIM-SM only */ #define PIM_REGISTER_STOP 0x2 /* PIM-SM only */ #define PIM_JOIN_PRUNE 0x3 /* PIM-SM and PIM-DM */ #define PIM_BOOTSTRAP 0x4 /* PIM-SM only */ #define PIM_ASSERT 0x5 /* PIM-SM and PIM-DM */ #define PIM_GRAFT 0x6 /* PIM-DM only */ #define PIM_GRAFT_ACK 0x7 /* PIM-DM only */ #define PIM_CAND_RP_ADV 0x8 /* PIM-SM only */ #define PIM_ALL_DF_ELECTION 0xa /* Bidir-PIM-SM only */ You can see the bug report with more details in: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=494223 I am one of the two persons that is packaging xorp for Debian. I am talking in my personal name, not in the name of Debian, xorp project or employer. I am asking this to you because the problematic change was possible introduced by: commit 2e8046271f68198dd37451017c1a4a2432e4ec68 Author: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thu Apr 3 09:22:09 2008 +0900 [IPV4] MROUTE: Move PIM definitions to <linux/pim.h>. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I am free to give you more information if you need. I am sorry if any of my facts is wrong.
