gost-crypto-dkms FTBS with linux 6.2 in jammy

[Andrea Righi]

[Impact]

gost-crypto-dkms fails to build with the new linux 6.2 in jammy:

/var/lib/dkms/gost-crypto/0.3.3/build/magma_generic.c:25:40: error: implicit declaration of function ‘crypto_tfm_ctx’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
   25 | struct crypto_magma_ctx *ctx = crypto_tfm_ctx(tfm);
      | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~

[Test case]

 $ sudo apt install gost-crypto-dkms

With the fix applied:

 - hwe kernel 6.2:

Building for 6.2.0-25-generic

[Fix]

Backport the patch(es) from Lunar to properly support the new Linux 6.2 kernel ABI.

[Regression potential]

We may experience kernel regressions in systems using this module with the new kernel 6.2.

Hello Andrea, or anyone else affected,

Accepted gost-crypto into jammy-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gost-crypto/0.3.3-1ubuntu2 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-jammy to verification-done-jammy. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-jammy. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.
