[Qemu-discuss] Issue with compiling QEMU on Solaris 11

[Basil Huffman]

Hello all:

I am trying to install QEMU on Solaris 11.  When compiling, I get the following output:

address@hidden:~/qemu-1.0.1$ gmake
  GEN   trace.h
  GEN   qemu-options.def
  GEN   /home/waas/qemu-1.0.1/qapi-generated/qga-qapi-types.h

As I understand it O_ASYNC is a Linux-only thing and does not exist within the Solaris world.  How would I go around this?
