Bug#716999: broadcom-sta-dkms: Fails to build on linux 3.10 (procfs API change)
The patch seems to work for me, the modules builds and works for the most part. However, if I try to use the driver's procfs features (enable monitor mode), the system freezes locks up until the kernel panics because of the lockup and prints out a stacktrace. Can anyone reproduce this or is this an error on my part? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#716999: broadcom-sta-dkms: Fails to build on linux 3.10 (procfs API change)
Package: broadcom-sta-dkms Version: 5.100.82.112-11 Followup-For: Bug #716999 Unfortunately either patching wl_linux.c or using Lev's patch file doesn't seem to do the trick for me, although I'm starting to think that dpkg-reconfigure broadcom-sta-dkms might not be the correct step after patching since it rebuilds all files including the patched one. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.10-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages broadcom-sta-dkms depends on: ii dkms 2.2.0.3-1.2 Versions of packages broadcom-sta-dkms recommends: ii wireless-tools 30~pre9-8 broadcom-sta-dkms suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Package: broadcom-sta-dkms Version: 5.100.82.112-11 Followup-For: Bug #716999 I can confirm that using the wl_linux.c file provided by Lev does fix the build issues, the module compiles and then loads correctly and appears to be working just fine so far. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (100, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.10-2-686-pae (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages broadcom-sta-dkms depends on: ii dkms 2.2.0.3-1.2 Versions of packages broadcom-sta-dkms recommends: ii wireless-tools 30~pre9-8 broadcom-sta-dkms suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#716999: broadcom-sta-dkms: Fails to build on linux 3.10 (procfs API change)
Package: broadcom-sta-dkms Version: 5.100.82.112-11 Followup-For: Bug #716999 I can confirm that broadcom-sta-5.100.82.112 does not compile on 3.10 kernel. With kernel 3.9 the version from unstable compiles as stated in http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=702788 I would like to add that also broadcom-sta-source had a similar problem with the testing version and kernel3.9, but compiled with the version from unstable. This time though with kernel 3.10 no version of either source or dkms compiles. Anyway, here's the output of my system: root@debian:~# dpkg-reconfigure broadcom-sta-dkms -- Deleting module version: 5.100.82.112 completely from the DKMS tree. -- Done.
