Description Felix J. Ogris 2017-04-01 10:47:53 UTC

Created attachment 468860 [details, diff]
patch will let you build nvidia-drivers-378.13 on vanilla linux kernel 4.10.8

Kernel version 4.10.8 no longer has include/linux/fence.h, but dma-fence.h
So, functions like fence_init(), fence_get(), and so on have been renamed to dma_fence_*
struct fence has been renamed to struct dma_fence as well
Put the attached patch to /etc/portage/patches/x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-378.13 and emerge nvidia-drivers
