This can't go into an 'old' section of the symbol version script - if
you base off the current 'pending' branch, you should see a LIBNDCTL_26
section at the bottom. You can add this there.
It's based on the current 'master' branch.
I don't see a LIBNDCTL_26 section, just 'LIBNDCTL_25'.
How about adding 'ndctl_dimm_sizeof_namespace_index' to LIBNDCTL_25
section ?
No - so once a release happens, that section is 'closed' forever. The
master branch coincides with the v71 release. That release had added
new symbols in the LIBNDCTL_25 section, and that section is now done.
New symbols after v71 need to go in a new section, LIBNDCTL_26.
The pending branch just happens to have patches that added a new
symbol, so the new section is already created for you - so if you
rebase to pending, you can just reuse that. Alternatively, base off
master, and create a new LIBNDCTL_26 section, and I'll fix up the
trivial conflict when merging.
Hope this clarifies things a bit!
Got it.
Thanks your clarification.
The other modifications of this patch are based on the master branch.
So for this file, I'll base off master.
Thank you for fixing up the conflict when merging.
Thanks,
