Openafs kernel modules fails on 2.6.24 ioctl32.h does not exist

[Johan Christiansen]

Openafs kernel module fails to build on sparc64 linux 2.6.24 and 2.6.22, since it includes a file no longer existing in the linux headers!
error: linux/ioctl32.h: No such file or directory In file included from /usr/src/modules/openafs/src/libafs/MODLOAD-2.6.22-14-sparc64-smp-MP/osi_module.c:42:
Creating an empty file called ioctl32.h seems to solve the problem temporarily.

This is indeed broken and needs upstream attention.

[Russ Allbery (rra-debian)]

This is fixed upstream in the 1.5 release series and fixed in Debian experimental as of 1.5.73.3-1. It probably won't be fixed in the 1.4 release series, since the backport doesn't look trivial.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package openafs - 1.6.0~pre5-2

---------------
openafs (1.6.0~pre5-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Apply upstream patch from http://gerrit.openafs.org/#change,4656 for
    correct reading of files larger than the chunk size.
  * Use dpkg-buildflags to get the default values of CFLAGS, CPPFLAGS, and
    LDFLAGS. Upstream does not entirely honor these yet, but we're
    getting closer.
  * Update to standards version 3.9.2 (no changes required).

openafs (1.6.0~pre5-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream prerelease.
    - Avoid downward vcache pressure when entries are free.
    - Avoid client to fileserver deadlock during callback giveup.
    - Improve calculation of when to flush vcaches.
    - Don't read pages beyond the cache EOF.
    - Improve file server reference counting, locking, and logging.
    - Rename the OpenAFS com_err library to avoid conflicts.
    - Restrict the number of CBRs allocated at once.
    - Permit importing of -md5 and -md4 keys with asetkey.
    - Fix token return in aklog with 524 conversion.
  * Apply upstream patch from http://gerrit.openafs.org/#change,4654 to
    fix a configure problem detecting Linux kernel properties, leading to
    a lockup on 2.6.38 kernels.
  * Update import-upstream and README.source for moving 1.6 from the
    experimental and upstream-1.5 branches to the master and upstream
    branches.
  * Change to Debian source format 3.0 (quilt). Force a single Debian
    patch for simplicity since the packaging is maintained in Git using
    branches, and include a patch header explaining why.

openafs (1.6.0~pre4-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Upload to unstable.
  * New upstream prerelease.
    - Fix file descriptor leak in the file server that could result in
      corrupted files.
    - Properly support large volume numbers.
    - Document current client setuid behavior. (Closes: #612608)
    - Allow salvager to be run manually with demand-attach servers.
    - Properly report setpag() errors.
  * Apply upstream deltas:
    - [1e322b88] Linux: 2.6.39: deal with BKL removal
    - [a8aa6f42] Linux: 2.6.39: replace path_lookup with kern_path
  * Declare optional dependencies in the openafs-client init script on
    openafs-fileserver so that, if the same host is running both a
    fileserver and a client, the fileserver starts before and stops after
    the client.

openafs (1.6.0~pre3-1) experimental; urgency=low

  * New upstream prerelease.
    - Revert UUID support in vos.
    - pt_util fixed to properly create new database.
    - MTU discovery now properly shut down on call reset.
    - FUSE client support fixed for non-/afs mounts.
    - A deleted volume can now be recreated properly.
    - Callbacks are again not broken during whole partition salvages.
    - Positional vectored IO fixed.
    - Fileserver per-client thread usage again properly enforced.
    - Anonymous dropbox support improved and drawbacks documented.
    - Ensure vnodes are not reallocated while in use for demand-attach.
    - Perform vcache eviction via a fast path before visiting vcaches
      where sleep is needed.
  * Apply upstream deltas:
    - [17b48f99] Add missing semicolon (Cl...
