Package: virtualbox-dkms
Version: 4.1.18-dfsg-2.1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Hi,
the version in experimental contains patches to build with kernel 3.7
and 3.8, but changes in the kernel break building on 3.9 again, because
some defines were moved.
Here's a trivial patch to fix building against 3.9-rc5:
--- a/thread2-r0drv-linux.c
+++ b/thread2-r0drv-linux.c
@@ -34,9 +34,6 @@
#include <iprt/assert.h>
#include <iprt/thread.h>
#include <iprt/err.h>
+#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE >= KERNEL_VERSION(3,9,0)
+#include <linux/sched/rt.h>
+#endif
#include "internal/thread.h"
I haven't tried building against older kernels, but it seems trivial that it
should still work there.
The offending upstream commit is:

This commit was first included in 3.9-rc1.

I don't think this is suitable for a stable update.
Feel free to backport virtualbox though.
