Bug 610058 – x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers with kernel 4.10 - .../work/kernel/nvidia/nv-pat.c:213:14: error: ‘CPU_DOWN_FAILED’ undeclared (first use in this function)

• Status: RESOLVED UPSTREAM
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description kuzetsa CatSwarm (kuza for short) 2017-02-20 06:40:56 UTC]

Tested with sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-4.10.0 during QA prior to starting on the sys-kernel/ck-sources-4.10.0 version bump.

I'm assuming any 4.10.x kernel is affected by this issue, though can't be certain.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install a 4.10.x kernel
2. set the symlink for the new kernel
3. emerge @module-rebuild
Actual Results:  
emerge failure on the package: x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-375.39

Expected Results:  
x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-375.39 video driver should be installed

over in #ck the ck-patches author managed to come up with a fix for building the driver in question.

I did the following to get it working:

1. install 4.10.0 kernel source tree as per usual (and set symlink, etc.)
2. ebuild `equery which =x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-375.39::gentoo` unpack
3. apply the patch manually
4. ebuild `equery which =x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-375.39::gentoo` merge
5. file a bug about it, and include a link for the patch

Created attachment 464394 [details]
emerge -pqv && emerge --info (and build log)

Already included a patch which fixes the issue, but went ahead and provided some logs and info.

Just confirming - and thank you for the link to the patch.

thank you!
the patch also applies fine with x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-378.13 (epatch_user).

Obviously we have to do this with every new kernel branch release. The answer is always the same.

For anyone who doesn't know:

/etc/portage/patches/x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-375.39

^ you can just drop the patch in there instead of manually applying the patch.
(Like until upstream releases a new version of the driver to support 4.10)
