Description

HADOOP-11403 made a change to include exception.h in NativeIO.c. This header includes use of the non-standard gcc __attribute__ declaration, and thus fails compilation on Windows.

Issue Links

• duplicates: HADOOP-11536 exception.h is not compiling on windows. Has gcc specific __attribute__ format
• is broken by: HADOOP-11403 Avoid using sys_errlist on Solaris, which lacks support for it
