Compile error for 4.15.0-rc3

[mi12078]

When compiling for said kernel I get the following error:

$ make all
make ARCH=x86_64 CROSS_COMPILE= -C /lib/modules/4.15.0-rc3/build M=/home/stefan/rtl8188eu  modules

The kernel which was booted at the time of compiling was 4.14.6-1-ARCH. There are no problems when building this module for aforementioned kernel. 4.15.0-rc3 was built out of source if it is of any importance. Tried building with 4.15.0-rc3 booted, error still persists. Could it be that I somehow miscompiled the kernel?

same here... but with 4.15.r180107.gb2cd1df-1 (Manjaro Linux)...

adding -I/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/7.2.1/include to ccflags-y in Makefile helped... :)

ccflags-y = -Wno-declaration-after-statement -mpopcnt -I/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/7.2.1/include

@riddicc Thanks, that helped solve the include error

I had the same problem on Arch Linux (4.15.11-1-ARCH), adding -I/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/7.3.1/include to ccflags-y solved the issue

@riddicc Thanks for the solution. This issue made me confuse a lots after long time not use my arch system.

helped me with fedora 28. The right directory for fedora is -I/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/8/include
