2020-10-30 12:20:55 Andrea Righi description The dkms module declares a struct proc_ops that is not compatible with the new 5.8 kernel, causing a build failure with proc_create(). Fix by adding a proper #ifdef block to support also kernels >= 5.8. This change is required to properly support the new linux-hwe-5.8 kernel in focal. [Impact] acpi-call-dkms declares a struct proc_ops that is not compatible with the new 5.8 kernel, causing a build failure with proc_create(). [Test case] $ sudo apt install acpi-call-dkms The install fails reporting a build error in the log. [Fix] Fix by adding a proper #ifdef block to support also kernels >= 5.8. [Regression potential] The code for the 5.4 kernel remains the same, so there is no regression potential. This change is required to properly support the new linux-hwe-5.8 kernel in focal.
