I tried to check out the experimental packages of nvidia drivers,
however the -dkms sources failed to compile against 4.11.0-2
headers. There are several problems with incomaptible kernel API. For
example, the 375.82 contains, in nvidia-drm/nvidia-drm-encoder.h
#if defined(NV_DRM_DRM_ENCODER_H_PRESENT)
#include <drm/drm_encoder.h>
#else
#include <drm/drmP.h>
#endif
This #ifdef is totally missing in the 378.13 sources, which
unconditionally includes drm/drmP.h only. However, even the current
(git) kernel seems to follow the convention that you have to include
drm_encoder.h.
Other configuration #defines missing are
NV_DRM_HELPER_MODE_FILL_FB_STRUCT_HAS_DEV_ARG
NV_DRM_HELPER_MODE_FILL_FB_STRUCT_HAS_CONST_MODE_CMD_ARG has a wrong
test
NV_DRM_DRIVER_UNLOAD_HAS_INT_RETURN_TYPE
and maybe others. It seems strange that a newer driver fails to compile
and the older already has provisions for that,
but it seems like that's what it is.
Regards
Jiri Palecek
