I also found out what causes the problems with autodetection of the linux headers path: configure is looking for the file include/linux/version.h in the headers path. With kernel 3.7 this file seems to have vanished. I will work around this in the PKGBUILD and file a bug report.

@kaspi and @totsilence: I've found the missing patches. Basically it is this one: http://gerrit.openafs.org/8604 I will include this and another one based on this in ver. 1.6.1-13 (probably tomorrow) so it should build with Linux 3.7. But you are also fine using 1.6.2pre1 :) Thanks again for your comments.

I've got a similar problem as totsilence. At kernel 3.7.0-1-ARCH, openafs 1.6.1-12, I needed to supply --with-linux-kernel-headers=/usr/src/linux-$(uname -r) for configure. Then trying to run it, there is an error and dmesg gives: libafs: Unknown symbol kernel_thread (err 0).

1.6.2pre1 works for me on kernel 3.6.9-1-ARCH

Thanks for the 1.6.2pre1 package. That one works, but I still had to add the --with-linux-kernel-headers=/usr/src/linux-$(uname -r) configure parameter. And yes, before I had tried openafs-1.6.1-12 after a fresh reboot.

@totsilence: Thanks for your comment. Maybe I missed one of the necessary patches for linux 3.7. Just to make some things clear: - You tried ver. 1.6.1-12? In 1.6.1-11 some patches for linux 3.7 were missing. - Did you reboot before rebuilding openafs? If $(uname -r) still said 3.6-... the module would have been built for the wrong kernel. Could you please try ver 1.6.2pre1 which you can find in my last comment and post here if this works for you?

Your latest version only compiles for me with linux 3.7 from testing when I add --with-linux-kernel-headers=/usr/src/linux-$(uname -r) to the configure flags. Then the package is created correctly, but I can't load the libafs module: sudo modprobe libafs modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'libafs': Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg) dmesg [3448.743262] libafs: Unknown symbol kernel_thread (err 0) Any idea?

If anyone is interested in testing the upcoming version 1.6.2 of openafs: I made a source package of the 1st prerelease, which is available here: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/25455527/openafs-1.6.2pre1-1.src.tar.gz
