Description Eduardo Habkost 2010-09-01 13:16:57 EDT

After solving the conflict below, kvm-userspace may start using the native version of the function, instead of a fake implementation that does nothing.


+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #629333 +++

Description of problem:

When trying to build latest kvm modules against kernel-devel-2.6.18-214.el5.x86_64:

/home/ehabkost/code/kvm/kvm-userspace/kernel/x86/../external-module-compat-comm.h:547: error: static declaration of ‘cancel_work_sync’ follows non-static declaration
include/linux/workqueue.h:117: error: previous declaration of ‘cancel_work_sync’ was here
make[3]: *** [/home/ehabkost/code/kvm/kvm-userspace/kernel/x86/svm.o] Error 1


The function was included on newer kernels, so we need to solve the naming conflict.

Comment 5 YangFeng 2010-11-03 02:53:14 EDT

Successfully make build against kernel-devel-2.6.18-227.el5.x86_64. So this bug
has been fixed.
