[Guillaume Hain <zedtux@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Having spent more time on this I found a fix on my machine (right now
with kernel version 3.8.0-29).

Updating the line 13 of include/uapi/linux/netfilter_ipv4.h from:

#include <limits.h> /* for INT_MIN, INT_MAX */

to:

#include <linux/limits.h> /* for INT_MIN, INT_MAX */

fixed the issue.

Title:
  netfilter_ipv4.h:13:47: fatal error: limits.h: No such file or
  directory

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I'm writing kernel module that include the file linux/netfilter_ipv4.h
  from linux-headers.

  In order to have access to IP Hooks I'm doing a "#undef __KERNEL__" before the include.
  When I do the make it complains with the error message:

  $ make
  make -C /lib/modules/3.2.0-15-generic/build M=/home/zedtux/Developments/kernel_module modules
  make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-3.2.0-15-generic'
    CC [M]  /home/zedtux/Developments/kernel_module/test.o
  In file included from /home/zedtux/Developments/kernel_module/test.c:5:0:
  include/linux/netfilter_ipv4.h:13:47: fatal error: limits.h: No such file or directory
  compilation terminated.
  make[2]: *** [/home/zedtux/Developments/kernel_module/test.o] Error 1
  make[1]: *** [_module_/home/zedtux/Developments/kernel_module] Error 2
  make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-3.2.0-15-generic'
  make: *** [all] Error 2

  When I edit the file /usr/src/linux-
  headers-3.2.0-15-generic/include/linux/netfilter_ipv4.h at line 13 and
  I change "#include <limits.h>" to "#include <linux/limits.h>" then the
  make works.
