Basically, this problem exists whenever timeconst.h is necessary. kernel/Makefile has code to create it in kernel/ and kernel/time.c is the only file that uses it. That code will need to be removed and newly written somewhere so that timeconst.h could be created as include/linux/timeconst.h before any other compilation so that jiffies.h can #include it. I believe it should be akin to how version.h or elfconfig.h is created. Someone with stronger Makefile foo could probably do it quicker than I could. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
