Hi,
i just installed the latest kernel (2.4-test10).
On recompilation of my "Nvidia" kernel drivers (for geforce 2 3d video support
in linux), it failed linking to "mem_map_inc_count" (and dec_count).
Im not much of a programmer, but to get it working all i had to do was to add
to '/usr/src/linux/include/linux/wrapper.h':
/*the patch*/
#define mem_map_inc_count(p) atomic_inc(&(p->count))
#define mem_map_dec_count(p) atomic_dec(&(p->count))
/*end patch*/
yes, you'll notice i ripped this out of the older kernels..
good luck in finding an alternative, or just leave it in, or whatever.
cheers
David
