Hi, all

I am compiling kernel 2.6.8.1, for using Linux Virtual Routing and Forwarding.

Now problem occurs when compile net/ipv6/route.c,

net/ipv6/route.c: In function `ip6_del_rt':
net/ipv6/route.c:922: warning: passing arg 1 of `_raw_write_lock' from incompatible pointer type
net/ipv6/route.c:931: error: request for member `lock' in something not a structure or union

I am using gcc3.3,

I have no idea where to find a patch or how to fix it. Can you give me some advices?

Thanks!

2.6.8 kernels are unmaintained now.
IPV6 should be supported well in RHEL5-based 2.6.18 kernels
Do you have some reasons to use old kernels?

Thank you,
Vasily Averin
