I had previously tested Kernel 4.14.11-rc1 with the 4.14.9+-patched NVIDIA driver 384.98, and that was OK: ………………….. ld -r -o /home/rgadsdon/kernel/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-384.98-41410/kernel/nvidia-modeset/nv-modeset-interface.o /home/rgadsdon/kernel/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-384.98-41410/kernel/nvidia-modeset/nvidia-modeset-linux.o Building modules, stage 2.

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on by

Just updated the test system to Kernel 4.14.10, and was ‘somewhat dismayed‘ – to put it politely – that the NVIDIA breakage introduced in 4.14.9 is still there! ………… /home/rgadsdon/kernel/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-384.98/kernel/nvidia-uvm/uvm8_va_block.c: In function ‘block_cpu_fault_locked’: /usr/src/linux-4.14.10/arch/x86/include/asm/processor.h:826:39: error: implicit declaration of function ‘task_stack_page’; did you mean ‘task_stack_vm_area’?

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on by

Kernel 4.14-rc8 is out, and brief details of changes since -rc7 are here: http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1711.0/03395.html This might have been 4.14 ‘final’ but there were still too many changes to warrant that..    Th 4.14 ‘final’ release may be slightly delayed, as it would now clash with the US ‘Thanksgiving’ holiday..
