    Unhappy module compile error

    Dear All,
    Now I am testing a char driver module in Linux kernel 2.6.18.
    My module includes char_dev.c, ioctl.c, and char_dev.h files.
    ioctl.c file has stdio.h, stdlib.h, fcntl.h, unistd.h and sys/ioctl.h.
    But when I compile using make command. The errors are
    ioctl.c:5:20:error: stdio.h: No such file or directory
    ioctl.c:6:20: error: stdlib.h: No such file or directory
    ioctl.c:7:19: error: fcntl.h: No such file or directory
    ioctl.c:8:20: error: unistd.h: No such file or directory
    ioctl.c:9:23: error: sys/ioctl.h: No such file or directory

    I have insalled build-essential. Then in /usr/include, i found these header files.
    Can I know why i got these error?
    Best,
    Andrew
