How to use headers from sheeva.with-linux.com

[djraffon]

When I download the headers from sheeva.with-linux.com and I untar the tarball I get a "usr" folder with inside a "include" folder with 10 other folders inside like "asm", asm-generic", "drm", "linux", "mtd", ...

I want to compile a driver with those headers but I don't know what to do with this "usr" folder, I don't know where to copy it, and there is no README.txt inside the tarball.

Is there someone that used those headers already for compilation?

depends how clean your drivers source tarball is. Something along these lines

Code:

export BASE=/tmp/foobar
export PATH=/path/to/cross/compilers/bin:$PATH
mkdir -p $BASE/sysroot
cd $BASE/sysroot
tar zxvf sheeva_linux_header.tar.gz
cd $BASE
tar zxvf some_drivers_tarball.tar.gz
cd $BASE/some_driver
./configure --target=arm-elf --with-headers=$SYSROOT/usr/include --with-sysroot=$SYSROOT
make

Thank you for the help but it doesn t work.

If I untar the sources of the driver, I don't have any "configure" file inside so the command below is not working:

./configure --target=arm-elf --with-headers=$SYSROOT/usr/include --with-sysroot=$SYSROOT

I just have a "Makefile" in the directory of my driver sources and inside this "Makefile" I can set some path as:

LINUX_SRC =
LINUX_SRC_MODULE =
CROSS_COMPLE =

But as I don't know what to set. I try to use the path of the linux-headers for LINUX_SRC and also the path of my cross sompile folder for CROSS_COMPILE but nothing worked.

Anyway, for me it seems to be much more coplicated to do cross compilation as I can compile the driver on the sheevaplug itself.

I just want to use the headers from sheeva.with-linux.com on the sheevaplug.

if just want the headers untar them so that in the end you find them in /usr/include/linux on the plug.
