Ubantu12.0.4下编译2.6.18内核的错误

      1、

error: ‘PATH_MAX’ undeclared (first use in this function)  

scripts/mod/sumversion.c: In function ‘get_src_version’:
scripts/mod/sumversion.c:384:16: error: ‘PATH_MAX’ undeclared (first use in this function)
scripts/mod/sumversion.c:384:16: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
scripts/mod/sumversion.c:384:7: warning: unused variable ‘filelist’ [-Wunused-variable]
make[2]: *** [scripts/mod/sumversion.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [scripts/mod] Error 2
make: *** [scripts] Error 2

解决方法：# vi scripts/mod/sumversion.c头文件包含中查看是否有limits.h，若没有，包含进去即可，，#inlcude <limits.h>

2、

drivers/video/neofb.c: In function ‘neo_init_hw’:
drivers/video/neofb.c:1925:6: warning: variable ‘maxHeight’ set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]
drivers/video/neofb.c:1924:6: warning: variable ‘maxWidth’ set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]

  CC [M]  drivers/video/tdfxfb.o
drivers/video/tdfxfb.c: In function ‘att_outb’:

drivers/video/sstfb.c:150:6: error: #elif with no expression
drivers/video/sstfb.c: In function ‘sst_detect_ics’:

make[2]: *** [drivers/video/sstfb.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [drivers/video] Error 2
make: *** [drivers] Error 2

         解决方法：定位到

drivers/video/sstfb.c:150:6: error: #elif with no expression

将elif 改为else

3、mutex.c:(.sched.text+0x1aca): undefined reference to `__mutex_lock_slowpath'

kernel/built-in.o: In function `.text.lock.mutex':
mutex.c:(.sched.text+0x1aca): undefined reference to `__mutex_lock_slowpath'
mutex.c:(.sched.text+0x1ad4): undefined reference to `__mutex_unlock_slowpath'
make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1

/* 
* In the DEBUG case we are using the "NULL fastpath" for mutexes, 
* which forces all calls into the slowpath: 
*/  
#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES  
＃ include "mutex-debug.h"  
# include <asm-generic/mutex-null.h>  
#else  
# include "mutex.h"  
# include <asm/mutex.h>  
#endif  

解释： CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES控制了头文件的包含关系，搜索配置文件 .config    可以看到CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES并没有定义。

解决方案：将 .config 文件中的  CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES   宏 值必为  y  即可。（位于2747行。或者 用命令『vim』查找  /CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES
）
