[OpenAFS-devel] Re: Compiling kernel module for 2.6.28.1

[Dr A V Le Blanc]

I've tried compiling the kernel module from openafs-1.5.57 for kernel
2.6.28.1, and I get this error:

  CC [M]  /tmp/openafs-1.5.57/src/libafs/MODLOAD-2.6.28.1-SP/osi_export.o
/tmp/openafs-1.5.57/src/libafs/MODLOAD-2.6.28.1-SP/osi_export.c: In function 'get_dentry_from_fid':

make[5]: *** [_module_/tmp/openafs-1.5.57/src/libafs/MODLOAD-2.6.28.1-SP] Error 2

Can it be that 'd_alloc_anon' doesn't exist anymore?  It appears in the
kernel sources only in a file under Documentation, not in any of the
source files.
