Not supported on that GPFS version; probably need a 5.1.8.x — definitely supported on 5.1.8.1.

Always check here before upgrading the kernel:

Hi, just to let you know:

building the 5.1.7.1 GPL layer for Linux Kernel 4.18.0-477.21.1.el8_8.x86_64 failed for me:

If anyone managed to build that, a message would be nice, else you should expect problems.

I opened a case with IBM but it is caught in the call entry ... (SF TS013920636, in case any supporter wants to look after it).
