How to compile libfuse for android?

[Ruini Xue]

Hello,

   I want to use FUSE in android. It's easy to compile the kernel part by enabling FUSE in .config, but how to compile libfuse.a/.so?
  I tried to put it in <platform>/external/ and create an Android.mk according to fuse's Makefile.am. However, lots of header files are missed, such as <sys/statvfs.h>.
  anyone has tried it?

You would need to add the missing headers to bionic.

Adding the missing header would indeed be the first start.
Only after that you would be able to determine whether or not it will be possible building libfuse using bionic.
You could also think about using a static libfuse library that way you would not depend on bionic etc.
Drawback is that the lib could be a bit bloated.

I just copied several missed headers from my ubuntu box, and there are lots of definition conflicts, redefinitions.
I am not sure whether the headers from desktop is ok or not, or where should I get the proper headers defined for arm?

There are some architecture dependent headers files so I would be carefull copying desktop (x86) header files and use this
in lets say an ARM context.

I found that openmoko's toolchain[1] contains all the headers, hope this is a better starting point.
