Hi, kernel 3.18.55 compilation fails with this error: kernel/fork.c: In function ‘dup_task_struct’: kernel/fork.c:341:2: error: implicit declaration of function ‘get_random_long’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] tsk->stack_canary = get_random_long(); Corrected by adding the declaration to include/linux/random.h line 26 : unsigned long get_random_long(void); Sorry, I really can't understand how to generate a patch from a tagged release, my git-fu is far too low... -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Emmanuel Florac | Direction technique | Intellique | | +33 1 78 94 84 02 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
