Package: src:linux Version: 4.8.7-1 Severity: wishlist Dear Debian kernel team, it would be great if you could activate the (newly-introduced) CONFIG_GTP kernel option to build the related kernel module. The Module implements the 3GPP GTP (Generic Tunneling Protocol) and has no impact on any other parts of the kernel or networking sub-system, except that one addtiional tunneling protocol is present, which some users might use and others not.
There are several Free Software userspace programs using the GTP module, including OpenGGSN, ergw and OpenAirInterface. Thanks in advance for your consideration! -- Package-specific info: ** Kernel log: boot messages should be attached -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.8.0-rc2+ (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages linux-image-4.8.0-1-amd64 depends on: ii initramfs-tools [linux-initramfs-tool] 0.125 ii kmod 23-1 ii linux-base 4.5 Versions of packages linux-image-4.8.0-1-amd64 recommends: ii firmware-linux-free 3.4 ii irqbalance 1.1.0-2 Versions of packages linux-image-4.8.0-1-amd64 suggests: pn debian-kernel-handbook <none> ii extlinux 3:6.03+dfsg-14 ii grub-efi-amd64 2.02~beta3-3 pn linux-doc-4.8 <none> Versions of packages linux-image-4.8.0-1-amd64 is related to: pn firmware-amd-graphics <none> pn firmware-atheros <none> pn firmware-bnx2 <none> pn firmware-bnx2x <none> pn firmware-brcm80211 <none> pn firmware-cavium <none> pn firmware-intel-sound <none> pn firmware-intelwimax <none> pn firmware-ipw2x00 <none> pn firmware-ivtv <none> ii firmware-iwlwifi 20160824-1 pn firmware-libertas <none> pn firmware-linux-nonfree <none> ii firmware-misc-nonfree 20160824-1 pn firmware-myricom <none> pn firmware-netxen <none> pn firmware-qlogic <none> pn firmware-realtek <none> pn firmware-samsung <none> pn firmware-siano <none> pn firmware-ti-connectivity <none> pn xen-hypervisor <none> -- no debconf information
