Android kernel compilation error

I am trying to compile android (cyanogen) kernel for Samsung Galaxy mini, according to these instructions :

I am using CM-7.

I followed these steps:

  • Download the kernel source.

  • Configure assembly:

    adb pull /proc/config.gz /home/user_name/android/kernel/cm-kernel/config.gz 
    cat config.gz | gunzip > .config 
    make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$CCOMPILER menuconfig
    
          

  • Build:

     make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$CCOMPILER -j4
    
          

After this kernel starts compiling and everything works fine, but then it reports an error, which is a bug in the source code, here is the output in the terminal.

 kernel/cpuset.c:1385: error: β€˜task’ undeclared (first use in this
 function)
 kernel/cpuset.c:1385: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported
 only once

If anyone can tell me how to fix this problem.

An error occurred in the source code, in the file kernel / cpuset.c on line 1385, a "task" was used, where, as it should be, "tsk", moreover, it was used later, but no value was assigned. It should be assigned a value like this: __task_cred (tsk).

This is the source code:

/* Called by cgroups to determine if a cpuset is usable; cgroup_mutex held */
static int cpuset_can_attach(struct cgroup_subsys *ss, struct cgroup *cont,
             struct task_struct *tsk, bool threadgroup)
{
int ret;
struct cpuset *cs = cgroup_cs(cont);

if ((current != task) && (!capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN))) {
    const struct cred *cred = current_cred(), *tcred;

    if (cred->euid != tcred->uid && cred->euid != tcred->suid)
        return -EPERM;
}

This is the modified code:

/* Called by cgroups to determine if a cpuset is usable; cgroup_mutex held */
static int cpuset_can_attach(struct cgroup_subsys *ss, struct cgroup *cont,
             struct task_struct *tsk, bool threadgroup)
{
int ret;
struct cpuset *cs = cgroup_cs(cont);

if ((current != tsk) && (!capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN))) {
    const struct cred *cred = current_cred(), *tcred;
    tcred = __task_cred(tsk); 

    if (cred->euid != tcred->uid && cred->euid != tcred->suid)
        return -EPERM;
}
