[mpich-discuss] Compilation error of mpich-3.0.4 with Lustre 2.4.0

[Jerome Vienne]

Hi,

I would like to report a similar issue with mpich-3.1rc1 on Stampede
cluster which is using Lustre 2.4 on login nodes.

Configure used:
*./configure --enable-romio --with-file-system=lustre*

Result:
*make[3]: Entering directory
`/work/01538/viennej/MPI/mpich-3.1rc1/src/mpi/romio'*
*  CC       adio/ad_lustre/ad_lustre_rwcontig.lo*
*/usr/include/sys/quota.h(221): error: identifier "caddr_t" is undefined*
*      caddr_t __addr) __THROW;*

Thanks,
Jerome
