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

[Wiles, Keith]

Theses types of include path are  normally contained the mk directory for the given tool and arch being built.

I am in a all da meetings at this time and can not look, but you can look in the mk directory(s) and see if you can determine why these basic include paths are not being added to your build.

What is the Linux Distro version you are currently building DDPK on?

Regards,
Keith

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

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
++Keith
