Re: CGMINER ASIC FPGA GPU overc monit fanspd RPC linux/win/osx/mip/r-pi 3.0.0
The last version of cgminer I was able to compile on OS/X was 2.10.5, since then there has been a change to usbutils.c that has prevented it being compiled.
the error is:
usbutils.c:805: error: redefinition of union semun
I removed the offending code
and tried to recompile and got
usbutils.c: In function cgminer_usb_lock_bd:
usbutils.c:908: error: union semun has no member named seminfo
usbutils.c:924: error: union semun has no member named seminfo
so it seems the semun structure on mac osx doesn't include seminfo for some reason.
any ideas?
semun doesn't exist on linux - you have to define it yourself.the error is:
usbutils.c:805: error: redefinition of union semun

usbutils.c: In function cgminer_usb_lock_bd:

I guess the OSX OS devs misunderstood that
You'd have to come by IRC to help work out how to fix this in OSX - in linux I define it myself as per the requirements - but that fails in OSX coz it is already defined
Maybe in a few hours though I don't have time right now
I am also encountering this issue. Was it ever resolved?
I was using http://www.spaceman.ca/blog/?p=235&cpage=1 to help me get the build up and running.
Build cgminer without enabling support for anything that requires usbutils.c (currently that includes bitforce, modminer, and bflsc). That's what the blog you linked does.
