Hi,

  I see that the TruCrypt build borks under the latest -rc kernels.
See https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=198394 for an example.

  I think this is because the kernel interfaces tc uses have changed.

  Is anyone aware of any fixes to correct this problem?

  Has anyone considered incorporating the non-userland parts of tc
into the kernel to avoid this borkage in the future?  tc is under some
non-GPL license so this may not be possible?


  Thx,


Dave.

It's been discussed on the lkml. The author never submitted it for
inclusion in the kernel.
Take a look at http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/11/5/369
