The genl_register_family_with_ops error can most likely be solved by
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/backports/backports.git/tree/backport/backport-include/net/genetlink.h?id=a91a3e6e3a6ed6cdbbe942bafe05ae5fcdf41ce9
The netlink_skb_parms most likely can be fixed by redefining NETLINK_CB to
something which casts to a structure with the name portid for the field
pid for Linux < 3.7.
struct netlink_skb_parms_compat {
struct scm_creds creds;
__u32 portid; /* was renamed in 3.7 from "pid" */
__u32 dst_group;
__u32 flags;
struct sock *sk;
};
Kind regards,
Sven
