deploy.sh fails on Linux 5.13.0 #172

Closed martinleopold closed 2 years ago

After updating kernel to 5.13, I've tried to reinstall/update the driver.

OS Version: Pop!_OS 20.04 LTS (GNU/Linux 5.13.0-7614-generic x86_64)

./deploy.sh fails on dkms build with:

...Log begins after rsync output...

DKMS: add completed.

Kernel preparation unnecessary for this kernel.  Skipping...

My make is quite rusty, but I suppose it's a path error or something, since a simple make clean; make seems to compile just fine. Any help appreciated!

Try installing from commit 9f242ddc2ec4c5f4f8393a6e6496514b995b05bd. I think this problem was introduced in the last few days. I had the same issue and rolling back to that commit made it work.

Thanks @lyoshenka! I tried the last few commits, and it seems it's actually the latest commit (f2bccb9) that introduces the error for me. The one before that (e3339ad) builds just fine.

Had the same issue on Linux 5.11.0, with the same resolution (rolling back one commit). Likely the --cvs-exclude is excluding the core directory.

I am very sorry! I thought it was a no-brainer and did not give it a try! I just push a revert and the issue should be fixed now.
