Here is what I did :
sed -i 's/PDE(inode)->data/PDE_DATA(inode)/g' drbd/*.*
sed -i 's/random32()/prandom_u32()/g' drbd/*.*
sed -i 's/hlist_for_each_entry\([^(]*\)(\([^,]*\),[^,]*,/hlist_for_each_entry\1(\2,/g'
drbd/*.*

Then :
./configure ...
make
make install

It works with DRBD 8.3 and 8.4, they build on kernel 3.10.

Lars, Philipp, I just saw that today you released 8.3.16rc1, thank you
very much !
Could you make 8.3.16 compliant with kernel 3.10 ?

Thank you again,

Best regards,

Ben
