Hello,
I have been noticing for the last <insert long time> that whenever
I do a kernel build, I inevitably get a kernel message similar to
the following: (not an exact copy of message)
Apr 16 14:57:37 ghost amd[xxx]: unknown host radix.h
This is because I have '/net' as an amd mount, and make is trying to
do a '#include <net/radix.h>' from '/' incorrectly! (Or it might just
be trying to stat() the file?)
In the past I haven't looked for this too hard, because it works.
With recent problems I have been having with amd mounts hanging, I
had make hang while attempting to build libcompat. So I looked at
the environment for the running make, and find this:
...
/bin/sh -ec cd ../../../../compat/common && M
AKEOBJDIR=/sys/arch/i386/compile/GILLHAM/lib/compat make CC=cc CFLAGS=-g\\ -O2\
\ -Werror\\ -Wall\\ -Wmissing-prototypes\\ -Wstrict-prototypes\\ \\ -Wpointer-ar
ith\\ -Wno-main AS=as AFLAGS=-x\\ assembler-with-cpp\\ -traditional-cpp\\ -D_LO
CORE AR=ar NM=nm LORDER=lorder TSORT=tsort\\ -q RANLIB=ranlib LD=ld STRIP=s
trip MACHINE=i386 MACHINE_ARCH=i386 COMPATCPPFLAGS=-I../../.\\ -I../../../../.
./../arch\\ -I../../../../../..\\ -nostdinc\\ -DLKM\\ -DDIAGNOSTIC\\ -DMAXUSERS=
64\\ -D_KERNEL\\ -Di386 libcompat.a
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This '-I' combined with 'cd ../../../../compat/common' works out to be '/'
which is definitely wrong. The '-I..../arch' is '/arch' also.
I am not very knowledgeable with make, but this appears broken to me.
