[Solved] DKMS module build fails after update to kernel 6.13.1-arch1-1

Hi,

I've just updated my system, this included package linux-6.13.1.arch1-1.

I have one DKMS module installed from the rtl8812au-dkms-git AUR package.

During the post-transaction hooks, I got this message

(3/7) Install DKMS modules

Any idea what might be going on? I guess it's not really a syntax error inside the kernel files smile

Thanks for your help!

@loqs
Your link means a fix is coming?
Same issue for RTL8821ce.
No problem with linux-lts 6.12.12.

Thanks, I had not.

I'm not really aware of the differences between the multiple forks for this driver, I stuck with this one for a moment since it worked well.

It appears to me that the aircrack-ng fork is still getting some PRs merged so it might happen.

@loqs, would you recommend getting the source directly or do you happen to know that some of these drivers might indeed get updated?

@philo I would suggest replaying to https://github.com/tomaspinho/rtl8821ce/issues/356 and link to https://github.com/aircrack-ng/rtl8812au/pull/1220 of which the rtl8821ce only needs the first hunk:

@elgmizik no idea when either fork will be patched to work 6.13.  Have you tried the in tree driver under 6.13?

Re: [Solved] DKMS module build fails after update to kernel 6.13.1-arch1-1

@loqs
Sorry, but what to do gets above my pay grade...

PS-
I am using rtl8821ce-dkms-git from AUR.

OK. I'm not sure what you're referring to by "in tree driver". Do you mean there are drivers inside the arch official repos linux-headers package?

My USB dongle is the following: https://wikidevi.wi-cat.ru/TP-LINK_Archer_T4UH_v2 from what I read on the right column, this model is "not observed in any mainline kernel" so I thought I had to get one from the AUR. Sorry if I understood your message the wrong way.

Support for 0x2357:0x010e was only added to the rtw88 driver in https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commi … d3a7352d38 which is not part of 6.13.1,  my mistake.

Re: [Solved] DKMS module build fails after update to kernel 6.13.1-arch1-1

Thanks for the clarification. So I understand this driver might make it into the main tree soon? That's good news. In the meantime, I'll stick to the LTS kernel and wait smile

Thanks again for the provided info.

I got the same issue but with rtl8852au-dkms-git for my D-Link DW-AX1850.

If the build for rtl8852 uses the same piece of code as the one mentioned in the PR provided by loqs in their first reply, failure is to be expected. You can downgrade the kernel and configure pacman so that it ignores kernel updates for now.

I'm marking the thread as resolved.

Re: [Solved] DKMS module build fails after update to kernel 6.13.1-arch1-1

See Patching_packages#Applying_patches.  The following downloads and adds the patch to the PKGBUILD:

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/rtl8852au-dkms-git.git
cd rtl8852au-dkms-git
curl -o PKGBUILD.diff http://0x0.st/8KQV.diff
git apply -v PKGBUILD.diff

Then build and install the package as normal.  You could also post a link from https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rtl8852au-dkms-git to this post.
Edit:
Fixed typo.

Thanks! It works, and I've added a link to the AUR page.

Edit: Oh, you have a slight typo though, should be apply -v not apply- v
