Hi Sam,

I have tried pvfs-2.6.2 with your "kzalloc.patch" and SuSE-9.3. The compilation
of the kernel module pvfs2.ko seems to be ok, although there is a warning
"warning: implicit declaration of function `kzalloc'"!
But when I tried to load the kernel, I got the following error:

insmod ./pvfs2.ko
insmod: error inserting './pvfs2.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module

and on the system log:

Feb 21 16:00:56 pleiades2 kernel: pvfs2: Unknown symbol kzalloc, st_info == 0x1
Feb 21 16:00:56 pleiades2 kernel: load_module: err 0xfffffffffffffffe (dont worry)

Here is the output of "uname -a" on my x86-64 box:

Linux pleiades2 2.6.11.4-21.15-smp #1 SMP Tue Nov 28 13:39:58 UTC 2006 x86_64
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I attach the patch, configure and kmod logs in case you need them.

Best regards,   -Minh.
