The short form: Out of tree modules are the problem of their maintainers. Kernel support is basically limited to not intentionally breaking the basic mechanism for compiling an out-of-tree module.

How can the kernel developers change code in a closed source external body of source? Hint, it's nvidia's responsibility :) thanks, greg k-h ___ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@kernelnewbies.org https://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
4.19-rc3 incompatible with nvidia driver
Hi, The latest nvidia driver is incompatible with 4.19-rc3 because "drm_mode_connector_update_edid_property" got renamed to "drm_connector_update_edid_property" and "drm_mode_connector_attach_encoder" to "drm_connector_attach_encoder" in the linux headers. Is this considered the fault of linux or is it considered nvidia's responsibility to fix this? If it's considered regression in the Linux kernel, to who (/ which mailing list) do I report this?
