From b38758d4d47a769268da791ec6a1ab8b138e203e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Evgeniy Didin Date: Tue, 30 Jan 2018 15:36:51 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] kernel: backport fix undefined abort While building mpi.ko module with stable Linux v4.14.14 an error occured: >ERROR: "abort" [lib/mpi/mpi.ko] undefined! In upstream Linux 4.15 this issue is fixed: Commit 7c2c11b208be ("arch: define weak abort()") https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=7c2c11b208be09c156573fc0076b7b3646e05219 Commit dc8635b78cd8 ("kernel/exit.c: export abort() to modules") https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=dc8635b78cd8669c37e230058d18c33af7451ab1 So lets add backport patches until these fixes are not applied in stable version.
