Compile error with "@CONFIG_SND_KERNELSRC@/include/linux/pci_ids.h: No such file or directory".

[Takashi Sakamoto]

Natty's kernel is linux 2.6.38 and it includes ALSA 1.0.23 stuff. But the latest version of ALSA is 1.0.24. We can get the latest ALSA kernel module source by installing alsa-source package but get compile error below,

This bus is related to "module-assistant" package.

I hope to fix this bug and to be able to generate the latest ALSA kernel module package by utilizing module-assistant.

What version of the alsa drivers are you trying to build, and for what reason? If you need newer alsa drivers than what the 11.04 kernel requires, then we will shortly have daily builds of the latest alsa driver code for 11.04, as per the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/InstallingLinuxAlsaDriverModules. Please keep an eye out for these packages, which should be available very shortly.

[Takashi Sakamoto (mocchi)]

I would like to build ALSA 1.0.24.

I'm a member of Japanese LoCo and active to support users for sound system in Japanese forum. This time a user post HDMI sound trouble and I want to suggest to update ALSA kernel module to him or her. At first I have a plan to utilize module-assistant script and install ALSA kernel module 1.0.24 as a maintainable package.

But I failed to do this with the reported bug. This bug causes "fail to build" in module-assistant script.

I'm very welcome to your work in Ubuntu Audio Dev team but this PPA serves Daily Build. In my opinion, daily build includes some bugs and should be used by the users who can find solutions by their own effort when facing bugs.

Of cource, I hope to be such a user but all of members in my LoCo is not such users. So I'm hesitate to introduce your packages to all users. I think It a good way to use the same source then I need build-able alsa-source package.

I say again that I'm very welcome to your work for daily build. But what I want is to keep both ways of utilizing daily build and utilize the same source, for good solutions.

Best Regards

I have the same problem trying to install the latest ALSA drivers on Ubuntu 11.04 with kernel 2.6.38-11-generic-pae. The file "pci_ids.h" does not appear to be present in the linux-headers-2.6.38-11-generic-pae package.

[Takashi Sakamoto (mocchi)]

You can refer to my in-depth report about this at # 832137.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Probably doesn't matter anymore, but just bumped into this (also on natty); did:

apt-get source alsa-driver
cd alsa-driver
./configure --with-debug=full --with-cards=seq-dummy

Configure passes fine, then:

make
# ...
# /path/to/alsa-driver-1.0.24+dfsg/include/linux/pci_ids.h:2:58: fatal error: @CONFIG_SND_KERNELSRC@/include/linux/pci_ids.h: No such file or directory

alsa-driver-1.0.24+dfsg$ grep -r @CONFIG_SND_KERNELSRC@ .
./include/i2c-id_compat.h:#include "@CONFIG_SND_KERNELSRC@/include/linux/i2c-id.h"
./include/pci_ids_compat.h.in:#include "@CONFIG_SND_KERNELSRC@/include/linux/pci_ids.h"
./include/linux/i2c-id.h:#include "@CONFIG_SND_KERNELSRC@/include/linux/i2c-id.h"
./include/linux/pci_ids.h:#include "@CONFIG_SND_KERNELSRC@/include/linux/pci_ids.h"
./include/i2c-id_compat.h.in:#include "@CONFIG_SND_KERNELSRC@/include/linux/i2c-id.h"
./include/pci_ids_compat.h:#include "@CONFIG_SND_KERNELSRC@/include/linux/pci_ids.h"
./debian/patches/distinguish_kernel_makefile_and_source_dirs.patch:+#include "@CONFIG_SND_KERNELSRC@/include/linux/i2c-id.h"
./debian/patches/distinguish_kernel_makefile_and_source_dirs.patch:+#include "@CONFIG_SND_KERNELSRC@/include/linux/pci_ids.h"

... so apparently it is debian patches... check replacement:

$ sed -n "s>@CONFIG_SND_KERNELSRC@>/usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r)>p" ./include/i2c-id_compat.h
#include "/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.38-16-generic/include/linux/i2c-id.h"

... then replace:

alsa-driver-1.0.24+dfsg$ sed -i "s>@CONFIG_SND_KERNELSRC@>/usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r)>" ./include/i2c-id_compat.h
alsa-driver-1.0.24+dfsg$ sed -i "s>@CONFIG_SND_KERNELSRC@>/usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r)>" ./include/pci_ids_compat.h

... run `make` again, and finally it says: "ALSA modules were successfully compiled."

Cheers!
