This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled virtio: don't expose u16 in userspace api to the linux-3.8.y-queue branch of the 3.8.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.8.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.8.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From a71ad80edd4a9a35935dea2fe93412f779617b35 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: stephen hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org> Date: Fri, 3 May 2013 14:49:41 +0000 Subject: virtio: don't expose u16 in userspace api [ Upstream commit 77d21f23a1e4db8639e3916547c903a3b3c7a07c ] Programs using virtio headers outside of kernel will no longer build because u16 type does not exist in userspace. All user ABI must use __u16 typedef instead.
