iptables has the same issue, and solved it its way. (uapi/)linux/netfilter.h is used to get at things like union nf_inet_addr. This union contains struct in6_addr. There is no include for in6_addr in netfilter.h itself. This may break the "standalone compilation" test, but at least allows for specifying the environment-specific header for in6_addr in the C file: a. userspace: #include <netinet/in.h> before <linux/netfilter.h> b. kernel parts: #include <linux/in6.h> before <linux/netfilter.h> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
