Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH] fix broken ACM

ok, i see the point. the problem is because i moved some codes

gcc 3.3.5

could you please try again with the new patch below?

I tried it with your attached patch. There was an unused function when
trying out the NULL policy. The attached patch on top of yours and things
compile fine.

I'm still confused what these patches are aiming to fix. If we are building 'NULL' security policy then all the hooks should compile away to nothing and acm core files do not get built. So why do they need patching with ifdef's conditional on whether or not the policy is 'NULL'?

Currently, if you re-enable building of acm/ directory in the Xen root Makefile, yet the ACM_USE_SECURITY_POLICY is NULL_POLICY, the build will certainly fail. But I don;t see why we would want to support that. :-)
