--- Begin Message ---Package: bbswitch-dkms Version: 0.8-8 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, with the recent release on sid of the new linux kernel 5.6.7, I stumbled on a problem with the bbswitch module, which fails to build with the following error message: make[1]: ingresso nella directory "/usr/src/linux-source-5.6.7.1" CC [M] /var/lib/dkms/bbswitch/0.8/build/bbswitch.o /var/lib/dkms/bbswitch/0.8/build/bbswitch.c: In function ‘bbswitch_init’: /var/lib/dkms/bbswitch/0.8/build/bbswitch.c:460:63: error: passing argument 4 of ‘proc_create’ from incompatible pointer type [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types] 460 | acpi_entry = proc_create("bbswitch", 0664, acpi_root_dir, &bbswitch_fops); | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | | | struct file_operations * In file included from ./include/acpi/acpi_bus.h:83, from ./include/linux/acpi.h:32, from /var/lib/dkms/bbswitch/0.8/build/bbswitch.c:32: ./include/linux/proc_fs.h:64:24: note: expected ‘const struct proc_ops *’ but argument is of type ‘struct file_operations *’ 64 | struct proc_dir_entry *proc_create(const char *name, umode_t mode, struct proc_dir_entry *parent, const struct proc_ops *proc_ops); | ^~~~~~~~~~~ Apparently some structures changed in the new kernel, making it incompatible with bbswitch. Of course, it still builds and works on 5.5.x and older kernels, but still, since 5.6.x is now the default on sid I think this should be tagged important.
