Hi Peilei, For now, I'd remove the 'union { .. } p' with '#if 0'. Then add ELEMENT_REQUIRES(false) to the following .cc files: elements/linuxmodule/perfcount.cc elements/linuxmodule/perfinfo.cc elements/linuxmodule/cyclecount.cc I think that's it. Don't check these changes in. Let's talk about itlater this week. love, ed
