With 4.10-rc1 the devcoredump.patch in patches/backport-adjustment no longer applies due to following commit: commit f76d25275c314defb684fdd692239507001774bc Author: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Nov 28 16:41:58 2016 +0100 driver core: devcoredump: convert to use class_groups Convert devcoredump to use class_groups instead of class_attrs as that's the correct way to handle lists of class attribute files. Acked-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> So I am reworking the patch file (attached). When I run gentree I get following: Traceback (most recent call last): File "./gentree.py", line 1091, in <module> ret = _main() File "./gentree.py", line 724, in _main logwrite=logwrite) File "./gentree.py", line 906, in process apply_patches(args, "backport", source_dir, 'patches', bpid.target_dir, logwrite) File "./gentree.py", line 514, in apply_patches raise Exception('No patch content found in %s' % print_name) Exception: No patch content found in backport-adjustments/devcoredump.patch However, go into the target dir and applying patch works fine: $ patch -p1 < ~-/patches/backport-adjustments/devcoredump.patch patching file compat/drivers-base-devcoredump.c Hunk #7 succeeded at 181 with fuzz 1 (offset 2 lines).

Hunk #10 succeeded at 386 (offset 2 lines). patching file include/linux/backport-devcoredump.h So I am a bit puzzled as to what is going on so currently debugging lib/patch.py. If anyone has a good hint feel free to let me know. Regards, Arend
