[dpdk-users] Compilation errors with msg sys/cdef.h: No such file or directory

[Nagaraj Trivedi]

Hi Keith, cdefs.h is located under the directory

/usr/include/x86-64-linux-gnu/sys/cdefs.h

I have fixed this by modifying Makefile
<path-to-dpdk>/dpdk/lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/eal/Makefile as

CFLAGS +=  -I/usr/include/x86-64-linux-gnu/

But it is throwing error other files not found

fatal error: gnu/stubs-32.h: No such file or directory

Is there a way that by modifying in only one place will fix these type of 
issues


Thanks & Regards
Nagaraj Trivedi

Hi Niagara,

Please give us a bit more information like the Linux version and distro.

Eg.
rkwiles at rkwiles-supermicro:~$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID:          Ubuntu
Description:             Ubuntu 15.10
Release:                 15.10
Codename:                wily

I am going to assume your Linux distribution does not have sys/cdefs.h in 
the same location as other distros. Please run a find on your system and 
see if cdefs.h is located some place else in the system then 
/usr/include/sys/cdefs.h


Thanks
