Set up host kernel include paths specified by --kerneldir
When host kernel headers are placed in non-standard paths, the
KVM_CFLAGS are presently invoked only for a few .c files
(kvm*.c,vhost*.c) and not for other files like machine.c, cpus.c
..etc which also depend on linux/kvm.h
I think that's a bug. What's the dependency of machine.c and cpus.c?
Both machine.d and cpus.d depend on qemu/kvm.h, which in turn needs
linux/kvm.h
I am running a custom-compiled kernel for which the headers are placed
separately. I pass the kernel source directory to my configure script as
follows :
[...@zephyr ~]$ configure --prefix=/home/bloat/qemu-git/qemu-bin
--enable-kvm --target-list=i386-softmmu,x86_64-softmmu --enable-profiler
--disable-docs --kerneldir=/home/bloat/kernels/linux-2.6.35-rc3
[...@zephyr ~]$ make -j2
This is one of the errors I get : (similar ones are flagged for
machine.o and cpus.o)
CC i386-softmmu/arch_init.o
In file included from /home/bloat/qemu-git/qemu/arch_init.c:38:
/home/bloat/qemu-git/qemu/kvm.h:22:23: error: linux/kvm.h: No such file
or directory
make[1]: *** [arch_init.o] Error 1
This is because the location of kernel headers is not passed as a '-I'
switch to gcc. IMO adding the KVM_CFLAGS to QEMU_CFLAGS would be
required for such cases.
