[Mono-dev] Tweaks needed to get Mono compiling in the Android build environment

[Koushik K. Dutta]

Hi Christian, the failure is occurring at the code seen below in GetDiskSpaceFreeEx:

#ifdef HAVE_STATVFS
		ret = statvfs (utf8_path_name, &fsstat);
		isreadonly = ((fsstat.f_flag & ST_RDONLY) == ST_RDONLY);
#elif defined(HAVE_STATFS)
		ret = statfs (utf8_path_name, &fsstat);
		isreadonly = ((fsstat.f_flags & MNT_RDONLY) == MNT_RDONLY);
#endif 

Bionic does not have the statvfs function, and its statfs struct does not have the f_flags member. It also does not have the the MNT_RDONLY macro/define. Although I can add the macro, nothing can be done about the missing/different structures. So that hole in Bionic is not really patchable unfortunately. However, the fallback implementation of GetDiskSpaceFreeEx works fine... so it's not too huge a deal. My change is forcing it to use the fallback.

could you give me the exact compilation error, maybe i can tweak the
GetDiskFreeSpaceEx implementation to also compile on the Android platform.


Best regards,
