As of release 1.6.4-2 I cannot compile this package anymore on Manjaro Linux using kernel 4.19. Anyone else having similar issues ?

Hi, sorry to tell : it fails on 4.19.75-1-lts (probably on all 4.19.xxx-lts)

Also on 5.3.13 (update to 5.4 fails, see further below)

Consult /var/lib/dkms/evdi/1.6.4/build/make.log for more information

make[1]: Entering directory '/usr/lib/modules/4.19.75-1-lts/build' test -e include/generated/autoconf.h -a -e include/config/auto.conf || ( \

echo >&2; \

echo >&2 " ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid."; \

echo >&2 " include/generated/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are missing.";\

echo >&2 " Run 'make oldconfig && make prepare' on kernel src to fix it."; \

echo >&2 ; \

/bin/false)

Edit for 5.4 kernel i get this error : module not found: `aes_x86_64' https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/e56i0p/kernel_54_now_in_core/

but kernel still boots ... weird

looks like I'm trapped in an vicious circle :)

Thank you very much all for your hard work, it compiles fine again.

Posted a update based on the discussion at https://github.com/DisplayLink/evdi/issues/172

Hopefully this fixes 5.4 DKMS building and doesn't break prior kernels.

Thanks to @abucodonosor and @severach on GitHub.

I needed a few extra steps:

After you got the patch with wget, you should apply it:

patch -Np1 < /tmp/evdi/evdi-aur-linux-54.patch

Then it missed the version number from the library:

Line 56 of PKGBUILD should be

install -D -m 755 library/$LIBNAME.so.$pkgver $pkgdir/usr/lib/$LIBNAME.so

(note the .$pkgver)

Then, not to apply the patch again, I did

mv /tmp/evdi/evdi-aur-linux-54.patch /tmp/evdi/evdi-aur-linux-54.patch.bak

After that, makepkg -si was ok for me.

If anyone has a problem with the #evdi AUR #archlinux package under linux 5.4 and #DKMS failures, here's a patch to the AUR repo that makes it work. I retrofited the patches and instruction from @raghar's github link:

https://gist.github.com/niedakh/bdae93bc5f7a97a4131ebb304f3bc448

Instructions?

cd /tmp

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/evdi.git

cd evdi

wget https://gist.githubusercontent.com/niedakh/bdae93bc5f7a97a4131ebb304f3bc448/raw/67bb123b171e88e3a629c30c6f85e6148b1474ab/evdi-aur-linux-54.patch

makepkg -si

cd ..

rm -rf evdi

That patch does not yet work with DKMS :(

lordchaos commented on 2019-12-04 10:03 (UTC)

@mwawrzyniak can you please have a look at the latest patch offered? See the github link.

raghar commented on 2019-12-03 21:24 (UTC)

Some fix is described in issue on GitHub - https://github.com/DisplayLink/evdi/issues/172#issuecomment-561194509 - but for me it is a but too complicated to apply this myself so I am waiting for a proper fix.

darose commented on 2019-12-03 15:19 (UTC)

I'm having same issue as @lordchaos. Is there a fix/workaround?
