Public bug reported:
Due to my Skylake-based hardware I'm trying to run the latest mainline
kernel from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ on my Ubuntu
16.04 LTS/xenial (Linux Mint Variant) installation. I'm using the Ukuu
kernel upgrade utility for that purpose.
Beginning with 4.12 acpi-call-dkms (1.1.0-2) fails to build.
Here the relevant excerpt of make.log
DKMS make.log for acpi-call-1.1.0 for kernel 4.12.3-041203-generic (x86_64)
...
/var/lib/dkms/acpi-call/1.1.0/build/acpi_call.c: In function ‘acpi_proc_write’:
/var/lib/dkms/acpi-call/1.1.0/build/acpi_call.c:277:9: error: implicit
declaration of function ‘copy_from_user’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
if (copy_from_user( input, buff, len )) {
^
I'm unsure if this is out of scope for Ubuntu but wanted to raise awareness
somewhere.
