sys/signalfd.h missing on Ubuntu ?
 

Hi,
I'm getting the following error message during make of MySQL server on Ubuntu,

sys/signalfd.h not found

does anybody have any idea ?
Thanks,

Look in /usr/include/linux directory, if it's there, copy to /usr/include/sys, if not there, can you find with locate command? SOme people suggest installing kernel-headers package.

Thank you Stuart,
I copied it to /usr/include/sys, I had to also include /usr/include/linux/types.h because of some types not being defined. But now I'm getting the following error, do you have any idea ? I believe I have Ubuntu 8.04.
Also how do you install kernel-headers package ?

sql_select.cc:11009: error: ‘signalfd’ was not declared in this scope

Not sure what the kernel-headers package would translate to on Ubuntu, don't have a host to hand to test it either.

Thank you Stuart,
It looks like that signalfd.h does not contain signalfd() function definition, I'll have to keep investigating.
