Category: kernel modules Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Nate Muench (n-minker) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: vmsync module fails to build against linux 3.6.3 Initial Comment: Version: 2012.10.14-874563 Linux Kernel: 3.6.3 Other than the "xdr_uint32_t" (https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=3523224&group_id=204462&atid=989708) make error that still exists in this version I have also found that all the modules compile successfully except the vmsync module. Below is what shows up when I run the make command: Using 2.6.x kernel build system. make -j4 -C /lib/modules/3.6.3/build/include/..
