Package: dm-writeboost
Version: 2.2.3-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
User: ubuntu-de...@lists.ubuntu.com
Usertags: origin-ubuntu yakkety ubuntu-patch
Dear Maintainer,
with kernel 4.8 the bi_rw element of the request queue struct was
replaced by bi_op and bi_op_flags.
The additional compat code ensures the module with also compile
with 4.8 kernels running on the target DKMS system. Without this
the dkms install step fails for 4.8 kernels.
In Ubuntu, the attached patch was applied to achieve the following:
* Fix FTBS in dkms with 4.8+ kernels (LP: #1625054).
Thanks for considering the patch.
