[Ocf-linux-users] Compilation against 4.2 kernel failed : implicit declaration of function ‘daemonize’

[Nicolas F. <nic...@gm...>]

Hello

I'm trying to use a Cavium Octeon XL and so I need to install OCF Framework.

I use stock debian "strech"

I push patch ... fix some rejects and I tried to build my kernel modules
and I get finaly :

....
  CC [M]  crypto/async_tx/async_memcpy.o
  CC [M]  crypto/async_tx/async_xor.o
  CC [M]  crypto/async_tx/async_pq.o
  CC [M]  crypto/async_tx/async_raid6_recov.o
  CC [M]  crypto/ocf/crypto.o
  CC [M]  crypto/ocf/criov.o
  CC [M]  crypto/ocf/random.o
crypto/ocf/random.c: In function ‘random_proc’:
crypto/ocf/random.c:202:2: error: implicit declaration of function
‘daemonize’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
  daemonize("ocf-random");
  ^
cc1: some warnings being treated as errors
scripts/Makefile.build:258: recipe for target 'crypto/ocf/random.o' failed

It seems that API of 3.8+ kernel has changed. Is someone working on a fix ?

Thanks
