[SOLVED] Problem with DKMS wifi driver on kernel ≥ 5.15.23

Dear forum, when I upgrade to kernel ≥ 5.15.23, the DKMS driver for my Asus PCE-n53 wifi card won't build.

Said DKMS: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rt55 … tched-dkms


This is the output of make.log, which seems to suggest an error with "stdarg.h"

Does anyone know what might be the problem, or rather, how to resolve?

No, it didn't "fix" anything. It just shifted the brokeness one space to the right. - jasonwryan

Re: [SOLVED] Problem with DKMS wifi driver on kernel ≥ 5.15.23

This isn't the issue Slithery linked, that's a different error.

You're seeing an actual incompatibility with the newer kernels, the code needs to be updated.

EDIT: For instance: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugrepo … ug=1005404

Re: [SOLVED] Problem with DKMS wifi driver on kernel ≥ 5.15.23

Thank you! You both appear to be right. After changing the file as mentioned on the debian forum, I did get an error similar to what Slithery suggested:

But when I changed from LTS to the newest stable-kernel it compiled just fine. I then upgraded the LTS, and achieved similar results on linux-lts 5.15.23-2.

Once again, thank you very much! I've submitted a pull-request, so this should sort itself out
