Hi Deri,

I am very impressed with your paper on Improving
Passive Packet Capture: Beyond Device Polling.

There are serveral problems i met during the
compilation hence I would like to seek your advice:

Kernel version 2.4.23

I've put ring.h in place (include/linux), replaced
both sock.h (include/net) and dev.c (net/core).

During compilation, these error messages are
displayed:

dev.c:118: parse error before
`this_object_must_be_defined_as_export_objs_in_the_Makefile'
dev.c:118: warning: type defaults to `int' in
declaration of
`this_object_must_be_defined_as_export_objs_in_the_Makefile'
dev.c:118: warning: data definition has no type or
storage class

Another problem is related to rtirq, it's also a
compilation error. After patching the 2.4.23 without
error, I was not able to compile (with real-time
interrupt CONFIG_RTIRQ enabled) it. The error messages
are:

gcc -D__KERNEL__
-I/home/skgan/Kernel/linux-2.4.23b/include -Wall
-Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs -O2
-fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -fomit-frame-pointer
-pipe -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=i386
-DKBUILD_BASENAME=main -c -o init/main.o init/main.c

I appreciate if you can share with me your experience
in compilling the files above.

Please let me know if you need more information.

Thank you very much!
