I have a similar problem but I'm using Fedora Core 8 and I'm trying to compile the drivers for a Promise TX4310 raid card. I'm running 2.6.23.9-85.fc8.

When I'm trying to compile, one of the error I get is the "error: ‘CONFIG_X86_L1_CACHE_SHIFT’ undeclared here (not in a function)" error. Here is the full output from make :

Code:

It's probably not the include syntax because the code I'm trying to compile is commercial code that should not have bugs in it .. ?


The kernel I'm running is the rpm version. I don't need to compile it myself to be able to compile my module right?

Thanks a bunch!

I have the same problem but I managed to get the example compile by changing the makefile contents to:

Code:
obj-m += helloworld.o

build:
	make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(CURDIR) modules

clean:
	make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(CURDIR) clean
Don't know why it works.
