@@ -1690,13 +1690,19 @@ This package should be portable. However I didn't test it on a wide
variety of system. I used it on a 32-bit x86 host, running version
3.4 of the kernel.
I verified that it compiles without any warning from version 2.6.35 up
to 3.9, on a 32-bit x86 processor. On previous versions it fails for
various reasons, but the backport branch we push for every release
fixes them. The backport branch builds without warnings or error
for 2.6.24 and 2.6.26 up to 2.6.29 (we don'
t
care
fixing
it
for
2.6.25
).
I
don
't test kernels older than 2.6.24 as that one is the olderst release
we are using in production at the time being.
The package is upstream since version 3.11, and I'
m
submitting
all
local
changes
to
the
kernel
as
development
continues
.
As
of
this
release
a
few
commits
are
missing
from
the
official
kernel
,
but
any
@

package
that
relies
on
@
i

}
will
most
likely
work
with
the
official
kernel
subsystem
as
well
.
I
verified
that
this
package
builds
without
any
warning
from
version
2.6.35
up
to
3.13
,
on
a
32

bit
x86
processor
.
On
2.6.34
and
earlier
it
fails
for
various
reasons
.
Up
to
May
2013
each
release
included
a
backport
branch
that
worked
back
to
kernel
2.6.24
,
which
we
had
in
production
at
the
time
.
If
you
run
a
kernel
older
than
2.6.35
,
please
consider
