Intel LAN driver incompatible with kernel

mashrum · 2020-03-08 09:25:59

Errors on compiling network driver for
Intel I211AT LAN

driver version: igb 5.3.5.42
latest driver source: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/downlo … duct=64403

Error_1 [SOLVED]

/home/maxim/igb-5.3.5.42/src/kcompat.h:2816:10: fatal error: linux/pci-aspm.h: No such file or folder
 2816 | #include <linux/pci-aspm.h>

As I understand current kernel release
have no linux/pci-aspm.h
all functions moved to linux/pci.h

Move ASPM definitions and function prototypes from include/linux/pci-aspm.h
to include/linux/pci.h so users only need to include <linux/pci.h>:
PCIE_LINK_STATE_L0S
PCIE_LINK_STATE_L1
PCIE_LINK_STATE_CLKPM
pci_disable_link_state()
pci_disable_link_state_locked()
pcie_no_aspm()

User can edit intel driver src file kcompat.h
replace pci-aspm.h with linux/pci.h

is in related with the case?
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20190501 … adead.org/

problem on Kernel and Kernel-Headers: 5.5.6, 5.5.8

How to solve it? Any patch?

The igb kernel module is included in the archlinux kernels , why are you trying to build an older version ?

Post lspci -knn please.

I was not be sure that build-in version is actual

I suggest you try with the built-in version first.
