RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:

Apparently /usr/include/linux/fs.h is broken causing other packages to fail to build.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

kernel-headers 2.6.32-112.el6

How reproducible:

try for example to build cluster 3.0.12-31.el6 on 112 and it will. Same package built fine the day before with kernel-headers 2.6.32-94.el6
Comment 1 Jeff Burke 2011-02-04 14:33:53 UTC 
I have successfully built the cluster-3.0.12-31.el6.src.rpm against

To fix the build issue you can include this patch

Comment 3 Fabio Massimo Di Nitto 2011-02-04 14:42:56 UTC 
So what has changed in kernel-headers that requires me to change code this late in the process?

while I agree that our code should also be fixed, those headers should not be changed this late in the release cycle.

it was luck that I was hitted by this issue. If i´d built 2 hours earlier, it would have gone unnoticed.
Comment 4 Aristeu Rozanski 2011-02-04 14:45:43 UTC 
e619161e51e49bc9dc7627bd65f8d7a8fb051aca introduced a new structure using __u64
which requires linux/types.h header, which wasn't backported at that time.

Jeff, this solves the LTP build problem too.

thanks for the info guys!

This was fixed upstream with b31d42a5af1818bdf31a5f023abe4d8b212542f2. Looks like I forgot this particular commit while porting batched discard support onto RHEL. We should probably pick this commit up for RHEL.
Comment 7 Aristeu Rozanski 2011-02-04 20:13:42 UTC 
Patch(es) available on kernel-2.6.32-113.el6
Comment 12 Mike Gahagan 2011-02-14 18:52:19 UTC 
I've confirmed this is fix for building of the cluster packages and various internal tests used by kernel QE.
