Checkout the new linux-5.0 branch and lmk if that works for you. I tested build and module load on an Ubuntu 18.10 VM with Linux version 5.0.0-050000-generic, but VirtualBox's USB passthrough isn't liking me right now, so I can't confirm functionality.

-->> Confirmed build, testing since 30 minutes... -> confirmed working!

Thanks cilynx for the fast fix.

Here's the make log. Found error warning about ISO C90 forbids variable lenght array 'Input'. Hopefully nothing bad ?

Thanks for confirming! I'll pull the update into master. The warnings about VLAs are safe to ignore as they are valid extensions in gnu89 and have been part of the core language since c99. I'm not sure why Ubuntu's gcc includes -Wvla to warn about VLAs by default while other distros don't, but that appears to be the case.

cilynx commented 5 years ago

Correcting myself here -- -Wvla was added to the kernel in 4.20 -- has nothing to do with Ubuntu vs other distros.
