stress-ng 0.08.10 fails to compile on SLES11 SP4

[Andy Williams]

When trying to build stress-ng 0.08.10 under SLES11 SP4 I see the following:

loninenglled12:~/stress-ng-0.08.10 # make

stress-fcntl.c:203: error: for each function it appears in.)

Sorry; I forgot to include the compiler version, just in case it helps:

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package stress-ng - 0.08.13-1

---------------
stress-ng (0.08.13-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * stress-rdrand: use 32 bit rdrand for i386
  * stress_drop_capabilities: voidify name to avoid warning
  * Enable 64 bit large file system support by default
  * debian/rules: Add hardening=+all
  * manual: fix several spelling mistakes
  * stress-cpu: fix spelling mistake "assigment" -> "assignment"
  * stress-ng: fix spelling mistake "afer" -> "after"
  * stress-opcode: drop all capabilties so we can't do much
    damage (LP: #1714044)
  * helper: add stress_drop_capabilities to drop all capabilities
  * stress-socket-diag: use new HAVE_SOCK_DIAG_H build time check flag
  * Add sock_diag.h auto configure build time checking
  * Add sockdiag stressor
  * stress-fcntl: fix build failure on SLES11 SP4 (LP: #1709905)
  * stress-cyclic: fix build warning on systems w/o atomic ops
  * stress-softlockup: fix build warning on systems w/o atomic ops

Hi Colin,

Sorry for not replying earlier; I've been out on holiday until today. Unfortunately the fix didn't solve the problem on SLES11 SP4. I tried with both the 0.08-13 and the 0.08-15 tarballs and the result is the same:

I have managed to compile 0.09.00 by renaming F_OWNER_PGRP back to F_OWNER_GID which I believe from some reading is what this was called on older Linux distros (https://gitlab.collabora.com/martyn/linux/commit/978b4053aefd422713f289f2a315ce2acba62018) so I did on the source:

sed -i 's/F_OWNER_PGRP/F_OWNER_GID/g' stress-fcntl.c

Not sure yet as that has any negative impact.

Best regards
Hubba

This has been fixed, I just pushed the change to the stress-ng repository:
