So with Linux Kernel 4.11.0, osscore.c no longer compiles with error as follows:

osscore.c:477:23: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type 'const struct cred'    return current->cred->uid.val;

So I "fiddled around" and came up with following fix:

oss-4.9999-001_oss4_linux_4.11_osscore_fix_git.patch.txt: Kernel 4.11.0 osscore.c compile fix; (695 Bytes) Downloaded 1060 times

Dirty fix but "works-for-me"!

PS: This article on StackOverflow helped me understand what the problem and what needs to be done.
