Add support for the backported lts-utopic stack
Status in bcmwl package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in bcmwl source package in Precise:
Fix Released
Status in bcmwl source package in Trusty:
Fix Released
Bug description:
SRU request:
[Impact]
* As a result of this bug, bcmwl-kernel-source will fail to build the
module against linux-generic-lts-utopic in Ubuntu 14.04.2.
[Test Case]
* Enable the trusty-proposed repository and install bcmwl-kernel-
source (6.30.223.248+bdcom-0ubuntu0.1).
* Install linux-generic-lts-utopic
* If the package installs without errors from DKMS with both the
linux-generic and linux-generic-lts-utopic kernels, then the patches
work correctly.
[Regression Potential]
* The patches that I backported from 15.04 will preserve the current
driver behaviour on linux-generic (3.13) and linux-generic-lts-utopic
(3.16), thanks to the use of specific macros in the code which check
the kernel version. As a result, no regressions of any kind can be
expected on these kernels. As a plus, support for kernels up to 3.18
is also included.
