Description of problem: The issue only happens on ia64 platform. The header file /usr/include/asm/user.h has '#define NBPG PAGE_SIZE', but the definition of PAGE_SIZE is unavailable. In fact, the file /usr/include/asm/page.h contains nothing other than comments. This leads to compilation errors when building packages using NBPG or PAGE_SIZE such as xen and mono-debugger. Is there a clean way to put PAGE_SIZE and PAGE_SHIFT to the header file? Not sure if the values decided by CONFIG_PAGE_SIZE could be used here. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.23.1-42.fc8.src.rpm kernel-headers-2.6.23.1-42.fc8.ia64.rpm (http://free.linux.hp.com/Fedora-ia64/Everything/8/ia64/os/Packages/kernel-headers-2.6.23.1-42.fc8.ia64.rpm) How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1.Complies a file which include <asm/user.h> and use the macro NBPG. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info: Actually some package (mono-debugger) include <sys/user.h> to use NBPG. But since the definitions in <sys/user.h> are provided by kernel-headers, I report the issue here.
this is actually a bug in mono-debugger itself. using the PAGE_SIZE macro is not portable and not the right way to get the size of a page. It should use getpagesize() instead. reassigning to mono-debugger.
Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
This is fixed in the current version - I'm trying to get mdebugger 0.6 into f9 currently
