I'm getting errors when trying to compile the example system call in /usr/share/examples/kld/syscall/module/syscall.c. The version of the file is 1.2. The errors are as follows: *** In file included from syscall.c:35: *** /usr/include/sys/systm.h:327: syntax error before `int' *** /usr/include/sys/systm.h:328: syntax error before `int' *** /usr/include/sys/systm.h:329: syntax error before `(' The corresponding lines from the header are: *** int major(dev_t x); *** int minor(dev_t x); *** dev_t makedev(int x, int y); There is a comment above these lines: "Common `dev_t' stuff are declared here to avoid #include poisoning". But these lines are getting mangled by the following macros defined in <sys/types.h>: *** #define major(x) ((int)(((u_int)(x) >> 8)&0xff)) /* major number */ *** #define minor(x) ((int)((x)&0xffff00ff)) /* minor number */ *** #define makedev(x,y) ((dev_t)(((x) << 8) | (y))) /* create dev_t */ which, after pre-processing, results in the following: *** int ((int)(((u_int)( dev_t x ) >> 8)&0xff)) ; *** int ((int)(( dev_t x )&0xffff00ff)) ; *** dev_t ((dev_t)((( int x ) << 8) | ( int y ))) ; Clearly this is nonsense. Fix: Remove offending lines from <sys/systm.h> How-To-Repeat: cd /usr/share/examples/kld/syscall/module/ gcc -c syscall.c
