This release has compatibility fixes for newer Linux Kernels and a bug fix regarding u3v request_id overflow.

Fix #1 - Kernel 5.10 compatibility

  • With kernel 5.10 and up mmap_sem was removed and intended to be replaced with mmap_lock
  • Added logic in our code to check kernel version and use the appropriate locking mechanism

Fix #2 - Request_ID overflow back to 1

  • Every write command we send increases the request_id by 1 and in the case were we overflow we go back to 0 which isn't allowed
  • Introduced logic to loopback to 1 after the first overflow

No other features or bug fixes were introduced in this release.
