[Click] patchless click patches

[Ricard Vilalta]

Thanks Roman,

I succeeded compiling it for a Ubuntu 10.10, but I needed to make some 
hand modifications to get it running.


First of all, ./configure --enable-fixincludes doesn't understand that 
we are using patchless, and gives an error about kernel not being 
patched (which will mean we cannot compile click-install for example).



I enter linuxmodule folder and type make.

Several errors appear (I introduce my proposed solutions, don't know if 
they are good enough):

FIRST
______

/include/click/config-linuxmodule.h:174: error: redefinition of typedef 
‘uintptr_t’
include/click-linuxmodule/include1/linux/types.h:45: note: previous 
declaration of ‘uintptr_t’ was here

I comment line 45 at include/click-linuxmodule/include1/linux/types.h

SECOND
________

include/click-linuxmodule/include1/linux/sysfs.h:25: error: use of enum 
‘kobj_ns_type’ without previous declaration

I include linux/kobject.h at 
include/click-linuxmodule/include1/linux/sysfs.h


Is it possible to use PollDevice with click patchless?

Thanks,
Ricard
