I don't have an answer to Michael's question, but I can say that after
re-rsyncing the kernel source, and re-doing "make xconfig", and "make dep",
that the step "make all" seems to put autoconf.h in its right place.
(this is with the source for 2.4-test11). I had just been using "make
vmlinux" and copying the vmlinux and System.map files to the correct places.
But mol still won't compile because of the declaration
"struct list_head list;"
in /usr/include/linux/module.h
which is included in mol's main.c.
In file included from main.c:20:
/usr/include/linux/module.h:179: field `list' has incomplete type
The line in module.h in question is:
struct inter_module_entry {
struct list_head list; <--- Offending line
const char *im_name;
struct module *owner;
const void *userdata;
};
It was suggested that linux/list.h is not being included because of an ifdef
_KERNEL_ statement, but I found no such statement in module.h.
