[34154a943635] mptcp: Build-Fix with CONFIG_MEMCG
How to install (if you have our bintray repositories setup)
=====
The config-file of these pre-compiled images has also been updated with more
complete configurations, including also CONFIG_MEMCG (cfr.:
https://github.com/multipath-tcp/mptcp/issues/321).
To quote block/Kconfig:
> Builds Logic for interfacing with Opal enabled controllers.
> Enabling this option enables users to setup/unlock/lock
> Locking ranges for SED devices using the Opal protocol.
Without `BLK_SED_OPAL`, it is impossible to resume from sleep when using
a locked self-encrypting drive.
This configuration option appeared in earlier kernels, but only reached
maturity in 4.14 according to discussion at:
- https://github.com/Drive-Trust-Alliance/sedutil/issues/90 and
- https://github.com/Drive-Trust-Alliance/sedutil/pull/190
This kernel option is enabled in the default kernels shipped with
Fedora, Debian, and other mainstream Linux distributions.
