I just tired to build the GPFS GPL module against the latest version of RHEL 7.4 kernel and the build fails. The link below show that it should work.
cc kdump.o kdump-kern.o kdump-kern-dwarfs.o -o kdump -lpthread kdump-kern.o: In function `GetOffset': kdump-kern.c:(.text+0x9): undefined reference to `page_offset_base' kdump-kern.o: In function `KernInit': kdump-kern.c:(.text+0x58): undefined reference to `page_offset_base' collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [modules] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/lpp/mmfs/src/gpl-linux' make: *** [Modules] Error 1 -------------------------------------------------------- mmbuildgpl: Building GPL module failed at Thu Sep 28 08:12:14 MDT 2017. -------------------------------------------------------- mmbuildgpl: Command failed.

Built on Mar 16 2017 at 11:19:59 In order to use GPFS with RHEL 7.4 I have to use a 7.3 kernel. In my case 514.26.2 If I'm missing something can some one point me in the right direction? -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Bryan Banister Sent: Thursday, September 28, 2017 8:22 AM To: gpfsug main discussion list <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [gpfsug-discuss] el7.4 compatibility Please review this site: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/STXKQY/gpfsclustersfaq.html Hope that helps, -Bryan -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, September 27, 2017 6:45 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [gpfsug-discuss] el7.4 compatibility Note: External Email ------------------------------------------------- I guess I may as well ask about SLES 12 SP3 as well!
