Folks as you may already know compat-drivers was renamed to backports to avoid any confusion with the in-kernel compat code that deals with 32/64 bit compat work and due to some huge amount of changes that went into the project recently thanks mainly to Johannes. The new tree is available here: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/backports.git This tree doesn't have the old stable branches yet but I'll merge them soon. Use the master branch for ongoing linux-next daily development. We used to have compat and compat-drivers, with this new rework we just use one tree. Contrary to the old way to doing things you can't any longer use the base tree to compile anything within the same directory. You're now expected to take things out. The way to generate a new tree to compile as an example: ./gentree.py /home/mcgrof/linux-next/ /home/mcgrof/build/backports-20130501 As it stands we have tested backports master up to next-20130502. This leaves 11 more next tags to catch up to linux-next. We're behind given the huge amount of work that went into this development cycle. Fortunately though we're now caught up with Linus though and this means a new branch for a stable release is due which I'll announce next.
