I never tried it. I got 2.6.21.1 source, then I applied patch-2.6.22-rc2.bz2 and your patch. I compiled everything with this command: # make-kpkg clean # time make-kpkg --revision 2:2.6.22~rc2 \ -append-to-version -r5k-ip32 --arch-in-name buildpackage and got this result: [...] CC [M] net/ipv6/reassembly.o CC [M] net/ipv6/tcp_ipv6.o CC [M] net/ipv6/exthdrs.o net/ipv6/exthdrs.c: In function ‘ipv6_rthdr_rcv’: net/ipv6/exthdrs.c:390: error: ‘struct sk_buff’ has no member named ‘h’ net/ipv6/exthdrs.c:391: error: ‘struct sk_buff’ has no member named ‘h’ net/ipv6/exthdrs.c:391: error: ‘struct sk_buff’ has no member named ‘h’ net/ipv6/exthdrs.c:398: error: ‘struct sk_buff’ has no member named ‘h’ make[4]: *** [net/ipv6/exthdrs.o] Error 1 make[3]: *** [net/ipv6] Error 2 make[2]: *** [net] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/src/linux-2.6.22-rc2' make[1]: *** [debian/stamp-build-kernel] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/src/linux-2.6.22-rc2' make: *** [stamp-buildpackage] Error 2 real 409m49.142s user 250m33.296s sys 15m41.356s sgi:/usr/local/src/linux-2.6.22-rc2# bc
