Re: Unable to compile "compat-drivers" in Debian Wheezy

Hi,

This is caused because Debian already defined those
structures/functions/etc in their vendor kernel using 2 patches:
- features/all/ethernet-define-eth_hw_addr_random.patch
- features/all/drm/slab-introduce-kmalloc_array.patch

This kind of problems occur from time to time with other distributions
too. I don't know if in the code level there is a dynamic way to
detect whether those symbols are already defined or not but for now
you can edit compat-3.4.h in the compat-drivers folder and comment out
the lines defining kmalloc_array and eth_hw_addr_random.
