[linux-lvm] lvm-0.6, Linux 2.2.9 and devfs-patch-v99.2

Sat Jun 12 17:51:43 UTC 1999

Hi,

Is lvm-0.6 (patched with lvm_0.6-patch-15031999a.gz) supposed to
work with Linux 2.2.9 and devfs-patch-v99-2 ?

What I did:
Unpack lvm_0.6.tar.gz to /usr/src/LVM
cd to /usr/src/LVM/0.6
zcat lvm_0.6-patch-15031999a.gz | patch -p1
edit make.tmpl
make

What I get:
A lot of error messages starting with :

make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/LVM/0.6/tools'
make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/LVM/0.6/tools/lib'
make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/src/LVM/0.6/tools/lib'

The same goes for all other stat macros, resulting in more than 300 lines
of error messages (I do not want to quote them all here).

Beside the stat macros I get :

The same follows for the other sources.

The problem seems to be in liblvm.h which includes other files, so
that a lot of things are defined twice. This all happened after upgrading
the kernel to 2.2.9, with 2.2.1 there was no such problem.
The kernel is patched with the latest devfs patch and I'm using glibc 2.0
(__GLIBC__ 2, __GLIBC_MINOR__ 0 acc. to features.h).
