I am attempting to build the 1.1.8 release of alsa-utils and getting an error about POLLRDNORM (and others) undefined. This error comes from axfer/waiter-select.c. axfer/waiter-select.c includes "waiter.h", which includes "poll.h". This build is for a linux target.
poll.h includes sys/poll.h which includes bits/poll.h, which only defines POLLRDNORM (and others) when __USE_XOPEN is defined (which it is not).
However, linux/poll.h includes asm/poll.h which includes asm-generic/poll.h which does define POLLRDNORM (and others).
Should I change my build to define__USE_XOPEN or should I patch waiter.h to include linux/poll.h instead of just poll.h?
Which libc are you using? The POSIX man page (man poll.h) mentions POLLRDNORM defined there, at least, on my system with glibc 2.27.
thanks,

This is a legacy ARM product using glibc 2.9. Neither of the approaches I mentioned above actually worked. <linux/poll.h> is the kernel headers, which results in a duplicate definition of struct pollfds. The other approach (I added 'CFLAGS=-D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500' to the make command line, and other variations) failed elsewhere due to missing or mismatched function prototypes (ref <features.h>).
I got this to work by patching axfer/waiter.h to add the missing defintions, based on those found in <asm-generic/poll.h>.
I wonder what is supposed on such a system. poll() needs these POLL* constant definitions, and they aren't available by simple poll.h? That's weird. What does "man poll.h" say in your version?
... or maybe it's only about a few of them that are missing?

I think our emails crossed. Yes, only a few are missing. in <bits/poll.h> I see: #ifdef __USE_XOPEN /* These values are defined in XPG4.2. */ # define POLLRDNORM 0x040 /* Normal data may be read. */ # define POLLRDBAND 0x080 /* Priority data may be read. */ # define POLLWRNORM 0x100 /* Writing now will not block. */ # define POLLWRBAND 0x200 /* Priority data may be written. */ #endif It is only those that are not defined. Adding -D_GNU_SOURCE gets them defined, though. Interesting how the man page for poll.h does not mention this for glibc. Jay
