These + commands are still work in progress so they are hidden behind a + --enable-experimental flag during build. It should not be enabled + unless you know what you're doing. + - kmod tool now prints the relevant configuration options it was built + with when the "--version" argument is passed. This helps to mitigate + problems for example when the user is trying to load a compressed + module but kmod was built without support for the compression method. + +- Improvements to testsuite: + - Cache built modules so it is easier to run "make check" on build + servers by distro maintainers. If kmod is configured with + --disable-test-modules the modules from cache will be used by + "make check". No changes to the tests are needed and all of them + can run fine. + kmod 20 ======= - Bug fixes: diff --git a/configure.ac b/configure.ac index 4dc59ec6..d4f84bd7 100644 --- a/configure.ac +++ b/configure.ac @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ AC_PREREQ(2.64) AC_INIT([kmod], - [20], + [21], [linux-modules@vger.kernel.org], [kmod], [http://git.kernel.org/?p=utils/kernel/kmod/kmod.git])
