Closed wheelcomplex closed 6 years ago

wheelcomplex commented 6 years ago

make failed in Ubuntu 18.04 with current code: https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8812au/commit/84c178b64df793feb20540c6b42bd29c066706e2

Linux intelwifi 4.15.0-20-generic #21-Ubuntu SMP Tue Apr 24 06:16:15 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

A previous fork is ok: https://github.com/wheelcomplex/rtl8812au-ubuntu-18.04

There are many changes between them.

That looks like a gcc error. Certainly, nothing that I have changed modifies the PIC mode.

If you disagree, do a git bisection. That will be easy.

Thanks for your reply. After I install some packages for samba compiling this issue is gone. I am not sure which package is the key one.

I have the same issue. how did you fix it?

Your kernel needs to be rebuilt. That is what I do.
