Re: Linux-gpib-4.2 can not compile on CentoOS 7

Hi Frank.


Thanks a lot.

That fix solved the issue, and I can now compile the driver and our gpib application appears to work!


I still need to do a fresh CentOS install and check (to make sure that it is not the already installed 4.1 driver which makes things work), but so far your suggested fix solved the issue 😊


Dave: When I look in the kernel source I can not find a file called of.h in include/linux directory

(There is no .h files there, just a lot of sub directories)


Yours

Easiest thing is to go into drivers/gpib/Makefile and disable the
fmh_gpib driver by removing the line that says

obj-y += fmh_gpib/

Your 3.10 kernel probably needs some extra compatibility code to
compile the device tree related code in the fmh_gpib driver.  I don't
think your kernel configuration is wrong.
