Carefully read the NEWS: - Bug fixes: - Fix usage of readdir_r() - New features: - Remove option from libkmod to allow waiting on module removal if the module is being used. It's dangerous since it can block the caller indefinitely. --- REMOVAL of an OPTION! Breakage? --- - Improve compatibility with musl libc - Add fallback implementation for compilers without _Static_assert(), e.g. gcc < 4.6 - Minor optimizations to the hash table - Make depmod warn if a module has incorrect devname specification --- This last feature is the most interesting if the user has problems? Reproducible: Always
People who might have used this now missing Option to wait for a device related action to complete before doing their next thing scriptingly will fail :(
