Hi Dave, I've used the word "Module" because the <asm/atomic.h> and <asm/bitops.h> header files were not designed for use in userspace, and would fail to compile on some architectures while silently giving non- atomic behavior on others. The C compiler provides its own atomic built- in functions that are suitable for use in userspace programs instead.
You can refer to discussion on lklm at http://marc.info/?l=linux- kernel&m=115299997829268&w=2 I'm changing status to 'Invalid' because those headers won't be back in linux-libc-dev Thanks again for your time and don't hesitate to submit bug reports in the future. ** Changed in: linux-source-2.6.17 (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- asm/atomic.h #includes non-existant header file, asm/processor.h https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/65014 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
