/root/kernels/linux-2.6.24-rc3/usr/include/linux/kvm.h requires asm/kvm.h, which does not exist in exported headers
hm, works for me, on i386 and x86_64. What's different over there?
Hi Andrew,

It fails on the powerpc box, with allyesconfig option.

How do we fix this? Export linux/kvm.h only on x86? Seems ugly.

Is kvm x86 specific? Then move the .h file to asm-x86.
Otherwise no good idea...


kvm.h is x86 specific today, but will be s390, ppc, ia64, and x86 specific tomorrow.

What about having a asm-generic/kvm.h with a nice #error? would that suit?


headers_check continues to complain. Is the only recourse to add asm/kvm.h for all archs?
