Subject: Broken external module build on 2.6.23
Date: Mon, 04 Feb 2008 16:01:31 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <47A77D2B.90902@redhat.com> (raw)
Hello,
The merge with upstream changeset: af5ca3f4ec5cc4432a42a73b050dd8898ce8fd00
broke building an external module against 2.6.23:
CC [M] /root/kvm-userspace/kernel/kvm_main.o
/root/kvm-userspace/kernel/kvm_main.c:1271: error: unknown field ‘name’
specified in initializer
Which makes sense, since the .name parameter doesn't exist pre-2.6.24. I've
been trying to think of a way to work around it in external-module-compat.h, but
have so far been unsuccessful. Does anyone have any good ideas?
