sha256sum for config seems to be outdated.

Finally an update after a year. I backported from the linux-vfio package and used the standard config file from the lts package.

Same problem here:

install: cannot stat 'drivers/media/dvb-core/*.h': No such file or directory

xiretza commented on 2019-01-17 15:31 (UTC)

Packaging fails:

install: cannot stat 'drivers/media/dvb-core/*.h': No such file or directory

I guess that line can just be removed from the PKGBUILD.

Since this package gets less attention, I'm not that eager to continuously check for new versions.

Saying that, the best way to get my attention to update it is to flag this as out-of-date.

Hello Everyone, i wanna know if the vfio-lts version will be updated soon from linux-vfio-lts 4.14.52-1 to linux-vfio-lts 4.14.56-1 because the lts kernel is 4.14.56-1 please let me know

Has anyone tried updating this package manually? Did it compile for you?

fl3sk commented on 2017-03-30 17:33 (UTC)

The kernel headers are missing objtool, thus building external kernel modules fails. Adding the snippet from linux/linux-vfio package to PKGBUILD helps: # add objtool for external module building and enabled VALIDATION_STACK option if [ -f tools/objtool/objtool ]; then mkdir -p "${pkgdir}/usr/lib/modules/${_kernver}/build/tools/objtool" cp -a tools/objtool/objtool ${pkgdir}/usr/lib/modules/${_kernver}/build/tools/objtool/ fi

Sorry all that use this package that it hasn't been updated for quite some time. I'm building it to see if 4.4.52 builds correctly and should be updated later the day this comment is posted.

You might want to avoid upgrading to 4.4.20 for a while. There are potential issues with the keyboard that can prevent booting if you use encryption. https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/50700
