For RHEL-based kernel, it is defined from RHEL5.9. - kstrtoul, this function is united kernel API to replace strict_strtoul in the furture. It is introduced from linux-2.6.39. For RHEL6, it is defined from RHEL6.4. This patchset do some compatiblity work for these two functions, and replace strict_strtoul which is depleted from linux-3.18. v3: Adjust pci_num_vf() introduced RHEL version number. Seperate "replace strict_strtoul with kstrtoul" into 3 patches for igb_uio, kni, and xen_dom0. Add compat.h in kni and xen_dom0 for compatible with older kernels. v2: Merge these two patch in one patchset. Compatible with old kernel for kstrtoul. Compatible with RHEL6 for pci_num_vf. Jincheng Miao (4): igb_uio: compatible with upstream longterm kernel and RHEL igb_uio: replace strict_strtoul with kstrtoul kni: replace strict_strtoul with kstrtoul xen_dom0: replace strict_strtoul with kstrtoul lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/igb_uio/compat.h | 11 ++++++++++- lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/igb_uio/igb_uio.c | 4 ++-- lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/kni/compat.h | 16 ++++++++++++++++ lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/kni/kni_vhost.c | 2 +- lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/xen_dom0/compat.h | 16 ++++++++++++++++ lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/xen_dom0/dom0_mm_misc.c | 2 +- 6 files changed, 46 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) create mode 100644 lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/kni/compat.h create mode 100644 lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/xen_dom0/compat.h
