I'm recompiling the kernel for 5.6 due to the absence of a needed driver and I am having a touch of trouble, although I think it has to simply do with headers.
I've downloaded the following packages from RedHat 7.3 updates RPMS and original RPMS and installed them without much issue:
cpp-296-113i386.rpm
gcc-296-113i386.rpm
glibc-devel-225-43i386.rpm
kernel-source-2418-277xi38.rpm
make-3791-8i386.rpm ( I think it was already installed )
ncurses-devel-5.2-26.i386.rpm
However I was unable to find ANY kernel headers, except for glibc-kernel headers.
I can config the kernel just fine, but in order to get it to start building I had to create some symlinks:
/usr/src/linux/include/linux,asm,asm-generic -> /usr/include/linux,asm,asm-generic
And then it starts building ok, but a while into it I start seeing similar errors such as:
/usr/src/linux-2.4.18-27.7.x/include/linux/socket.h:249: nondigits in number and not hexadecimal
/usr/src/linux-2.4.18-27.7.x/include/linux/socket.h:249: parse error before 9fb3dd30'
finally culminating with:
/usr/src/linux-2.4.18-27.7.x/include/net/dst.h:149: jiffies_Rsmp_0da02d67' undeclared (first use in this function)

make[3]: *** [module.o] Error 1
Am I missing some includes? Or is there a problem with some modules I'm mixing and matching? The config is nearly exactly as the redhat rpm config kernel-2.4.18-i686-smp.config file.
If anyone could help, I'd appreciate it!
