Subject: [Buildroot] [git commit] ocf-linux: tweak kernel patch for newer kernels
Date: Tue, 27 Nov 2012 17:05:02 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20121128011237.BA60C97200@busybox.osuosl.org> (raw)

commit: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=670d60dc919fe6d99224ad1056c426812b38d108
branch: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

Newer kernels had a slight change in the random number API so the OCF
patchset requires a slight tweak to build and run properly.

Affected kernels are, per series:
>=3.0.41, >=3.2.29, >=3.4.9, >=3.5.2 and any newer version.

The fix is applied by detecting the API change rather than guessing the
kernel version.
