Ahoj,

this patch?: https://gist.github.com/TheComputerGuy96/321b49962ec2e2249e33d9caa7c63b9c

Note that if you say license=('GPL-2.0-only WITH Linux-syscall-note') you must install the license file(s) into /usr/share/licenses/${pkgname}, since GPL-2.0-only WITH Linux-syscall-note is not a common license (not at /usr/share/licenses/spdx/).

Besides that: Thanks!, now builds with kernel 6.10.x as well.

@DodoGTA, sure, thanks for the changes. I'll take the important stuff.

@loathingkernel Can you apply at least some of the changes in this patch?: https://gist.github.com/TheComputerGuy96/321b49962ec2e2249e33d9caa7c63b9c

probably this dkms wont even work for 6.10 due to fundamental things not being in place yet, see: https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-6.10-char-misc

The URL you have suggests that ntsync is to be included in the mainline kernel, making this package obsoluete in the furure, correct?

Regards!

Mm, probably this dkms wont even work for 6.10 due to fundamental things not being in place yet, see: https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-6.10-char-misc

(Still) fails to build for 6.10 kernel.

Can you please adjust this to dynamically build on the 610 kernel?

PapajNaWrotkach commented on 2024-06-25 16:41 (UTC)

Can you make it compile for the latest rc kernel, please? Right now it does not work with 6.10.0-rc5-1 (manjaro): /var/lib/dkms/ntsync/6.9.5/build/make.log

Module isn't loaded, even after modprobing
