Inofficial / unsupported patch - works with kernel 6.15

Post by mdippold » 1 person likes this post

I just found a working patch for kernel 6.15 support in the archlinux user repository.
With this patch (just replacing "EXTRA_CFLAGS" with "CFLAGS_MODULE" in the makefiles) blksnap compiles without problems on Fedora 41 with kernel 6.15.9-101.
My backup is running again. :D

Hello,

While Veeam Agent for Linux supports specific OS versions, the blksnap module is developed openly.
You can always build the latest version from our GitHub: https://github.com/veeam/blksnap

Support for newer kernels like 6.15 may appear there before it's included in official Veeam Agent releases.
