I'm unable to reproduce this problem. When I build it against Linux
2.2.5 smp, it correctly refers to kernel_flag_Rsmp_a99dd800
datan:>nm xfs_syscalls.o | grep kernel_flag
U kernel_flag_Rsmp_a99dd800
that's defined in
datan:>grep kernel_flag /usr/include/linux/modules/i386_ksyms.ver
#define __ver_kernel_flag smp_a99dd800
#define kernel_flag _set_ver(kernel_flag)
which does get included by xfs_locl.h -> <linux/modversions.h> ->
<linux/i386_ksyms.ver>
Are you positive that you're using the same set of header files as the
kernel was built with?
