Hi,
I have tried to add a new system call. I am using Fedora linux 6 ..Kernel 2.6.18.2
I followed the document
http://nd.edu/~ablaich/system_call_i...n_a_blaich.txt to add a new system call.
During compilation I got the following error. I have place my system call code in ~/ipc/ which is also as follows. Does any body has idea about this error.
