In file included from drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/mem.c:35: ./include/rdma/ib_umem_odp.h:110:20: error: field _mirror_ has incomplete type struct hmm_mirror mirror; ^~~~~~ ./include/rdma/ib_umem_odp.h:132:18: warning: _struct hmm_range_ declared inside parameter list will not be visible outside of this definition or declaration struct hmm_range *range); ^~~~~~~~~ make[4]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:276: drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/mem.o] Error 1 The reason to it that in my .config, ZONE_DEVICE, MEMORY_HOTPLUG and HMM options were disabled. Thanks
