Unable to Buil on Kernel 5.11.5 Ubuntu 18.04
Hi, I am getting this error, while trying to build the driver:-
My kernel version is : 5.11.5, kernel headers are installed.
ld:scripts/module.lds:6: ignoring invalid character `#' in expression ld:scripts/module.lds:6: syntax error scripts/Makefile.modfinal:58: recipe for target '/home/octo-ws/rtl8812au-5.9.3.2/8812au.ko' failed make[3]: *** [/home/octo-ws/rtl8812au-5.9.3.2/8812au.ko] Error 1 scripts/Makefile.modpost:117: recipe for target '__modpost' failed make[2]: *** [__modpost] Error 2 Makefile:1710: recipe for target 'modules' failed make[1]: *** [modules] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-headers-5.11.5-051105-generic' Makefile:2362: recipe for target 'modules' failed make: *** [modules] Error 2
Hi, this is a bug in Ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1906131 Check the comments to see if any fix works in your system.
Hello, Not « only » an Ubuntu bug but a >5.10 kernel change. Got this same error (module.lds related) on a RaspberryPi running Gentoo.
Solved it by somehow following hints given in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1906131.
What we did :
- get the proper kernel sources
- in the kernel source directory, copy the .config file from running kernel (modprobe configs ; zcat /proc/config.gz > .config)
- make olddefconfig && make modules_prepare
- go to the RTL driver directory, compile and install.
Everything seems to be okay.
@PyBonnetainNesterenko this is not helping for Odroid Armbian (5.10.102)
make olddefconfig && make modules_prepare output:
scripts/Makefile.build:415: warning: overriding recipe for target 'modules.order'
