[bytor@logicsouth.com] asm/types.h, netatalk/at.h [Was Re: 2.1.105 sound]

[Andreas Jaeger]

Hi,

I fear that bytor is right.  <asm/types.h> defines umode_t as unsigned 
short - and glibc 2.1 includes this header in a number of places:
$ grep "asm/types.h" net*/*.h
net/ppp_defs.h:#include <asm/types.h>
netatalk/at.h:#include <asm/types.h>
netinet/icmp.h:#include <asm/types.h>
netinet/if_fddi.h:#include <asm/types.h>
netinet/if_tr.h:#include <asm/types.h>
netinet/igmp.h:#include <asm/types.h>

What shall we do?  Provide our own version of <asm/types.h>?  Patch
<asm/types.h> and try to get it into Linux? ...

Andreas
