Driver refuses to install in 6.0.0-rc1

[NoGoat]

Hello. I have been trying to install the driver in the new 6.0.0 rc-1 kernel but it keeps failing with the error

Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 6.0.0-rc1-zen (x86_64)
Consult /var/lib/dkms/rtl8821ce/1.0.5.r140.gbe733dc/build/make.log for more information.

Here's the log file

For reference I tried both the AUR package and the one on this github page too

same case with me

Please test apply the following patch after #291 note it only fixes the 6.0 related issues so CONFIG_WERROR must be disabled until all warnings are addressed.

How do I disable CONFIG_WERROR

[loqs]

In the kernel's config replace CONFIG_WERROR=y with # CONFIG_WERROR is not set. You might be able to leave CONFIG_WERROR enabled by changing https://github.com/tomaspinho/rtl8821ce/blob/be733dc86781c68571650b395dd0fa6b53c0a039/Makefile#L6 to

EXTRA_CFLAGS += -Wno-error

[NoGoat]

It didn't work so I'm uploading the makelog and the file that I modified to make sure that I did it right make.log ioctl_cfg80211.log BTW I renamed ioctl_cfg80211.c to ioctl_cfg80211.log so that I can upload it here since Github didn't let me upload it.

I am guessing you edited the file by hand. You left the pluses at the start of line 1084 and 1087-1089. Delete the plus and see if it then works.

[NoGoat]

Yes I edited the file by hand and yes, I'm dumb and didn't notice the plus lol Also, I'm happy to announce that the driver installed without any issues. In fact, I'm posting this from the 6.0.0 kernel
