I had a failure building NVIDIA_kernel/nv.c (the nvidia driver): http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86_40/1.0-4191/NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-4191.tar.gz It uses pte = *pte_offset(pg_mid_dir, address); but this patch removes pte_offset(). 1) what is the correct fix (use pte_offset_kernel?)? 2) in general, is it wise to remove pte_offset() or should it be left for compatability? I should clearly say that I am not familiar with the workings of this patch, but find that it is likely to break drivers that are not in the kernel tree (assuming you patch them). -- Eyal Lebedinsky (eyal@eyal.emu.id.au) <http://samba.org/eyal/> - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | |||||||||
