Bug 373489 – sys-fs/cdfs-2.6.27 does not compile again gentoo-sources-2.6.39

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Mathieu Z 2011-06-29 18:17:45 UTC]

Seems like an upstream problem since there's been no release for over a year (http://users.elis.ugent.be/~mronsse/cdfs/download/).

Anyhow, it failed to compile after kernel upgrade.  It seems like I don't use it much anyway, so I am removing it from my system. I thought I'd file a bug for those who do to track it.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge sys-fs/cdfs
2.

Vanilla-sources-2.6.38.8 is the last compatible version of the kernel which will work with cdfs-2.6.27.

kernel series 2.6.39 and later saw final removal of the "Big Kernel Lock" {CONFIG_BKL}.

While the error message is totally and complete weird, I would not be surprised if removal of CONFIG_BKL is what the problem is here. Just a guess.

On the other hand, vmware-modules-1.0.0.25-r4 IS broken for lack of CONFIG_BKL and also doesn't work for kernel sources 2.6.39 and later.

cdfs is a nice utility for those whom need it. For now, if you need it - you are required to stick with kernels prior to 2.6.39. Otherwise, someone needs to contact upstream and politely request an update.

Then a version bump from a non-existent gentoo dev (note this package needs a maintainer) can be performed.

[Comment 2 Guy 2011-07-26 15:42:23 UTC]

A polite request for assistance was sent to upstream.

Will post results.

cdfs patch for newer(>2.6.39) kernel

Something like cdfs_get_sb changed in fs.h.
This patch solves the problem.
