Description

I started installing batman_adv 2018.0 on our machines, and while that worked fine on one machine (Debian stretch) with kernel 4.9.0-6, it failed on another one (Debian jessie) with kernel 3.16.0-5. Here's the build log:

It seems like this special downstream kernel is using API changing patches which are not part of the official kernel tree. The latest released version from kernel.org is 3.16.55 and doesn't have these macro definitions:

$ git grep -e READ_ONCE -e WRITE_ONCE  v3.16.55 -- include/linux/compiler.h|tee

$ git grep -e READ_ONCE -e WRITE_ONCE  v3.19 -- include/linux/compiler.h|tee
v3.19:include/linux/compiler.h: * READ_ONCE, WRITE_ONCE and ACCESS_ONCE (see below), but only when the
v3.19:include/linux/compiler.h: * compiler aware of ordering is to put the two invocations of READ_ONCE,
v3.19:include/linux/compiler.h: * WRITE_ONCE or ACCESS_ONCE() in different C statements.
v3.19:include/linux/compiler.h: * READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE()  will fall back to memcpy and print a
v3.19:include/linux/compiler.h:#define READ_ONCE(x) \
v3.19:include/linux/compiler.h:#define WRITE_ONCE(x, val) \

You have to thank the person who modified the API in the downstream kernel. But maybe I will check later what we can do to help you with your problem.
