Source: flashcache Version: 3.1.3+git20150701-2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
The mainline 4.4 kernel removes the target specific ioctl hooks that the flashcache implmentation uses to hold its pid white/black list manipulation ioctls. Upstream do not care about out of tree drivers and therefore are not interested in reinstating this call. In Ubuntu we are mitiating this via a kernel patch which introduces a new target_ioctl and modifications to flashcache to use those. This is as much as anything heads up about the issue. -apw -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers xenial-updates APT policy: (500, 'xenial-updates'), (500, 'xenial-security'), (500, 'xenial'), (100, 'xenial-backports') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.3.0-5-generic (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system)
