Hello,

I'm encountering some issues building DKMS modules on Linux 5.16:

Installed kernels:

linux-amd 5.16.v.0-2
linux-amd-headers 5.16.v.0-2
linux-atm 2.5.2-7
linux-firmware 20211216.f682ecb-1
linux-headers 5.16.arch1-1
linux-lts 5.15.14-1
linux-lts-headers 5.15.14-1

Using arch build directory, DKMS built on LTS kernel successfully.

Thanks for your help

@FatildaIV can you please check if you have the same issue also after having applied the following patch?

#44

[Marwis2]

Here is my suggestion for kernel 5.16
(Use on your own risk)

Thanks. BTW, what distro of Linux has kernel 5.16? Ubuntu 21.10?

[Marwis2]

Don't know, I always compile latest available kernel on my Gentoo box.

Fixed here too #47

The problem I'm running into seems nearly identical to what's described in this thread, but is (presumably) occurring on code patched for 5.17/5.18. Here's my output for makepkg -si

Running Artix Linux, kernel 6.1.8-artix1-1; am I doing something wrong?
