Hi all,
Sadly I have to use the Apani/Nortel cvc contivity linux client. The
latest version (3.5) stopped being compatible with the latest stable
2.6.22 kernel.
Since there will most probably not be a new release from apani until
year 2013 we have hack the linux_wrapper.c file to try to keep the
module compatible.
Based on the horrors that showed up while compiling against the 2.6.22
kernel (see below), I was wondering if somebody would be kind enough to
give hints/examples/doc-url/etc on how to convert dev_base calls so we
ca find a proper way to make the linux_wrapper.c file compatible with
the latest stable kernel.
Here are the make against 2.6.22 kernel horrors:
