DWA192 Driver 8814au Loadable Under Kernel 4.13.16-300 but not Loadable Under Kernel 4.14.7-300.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Having just done a system upgrade, the upgrade has upgraded the kernel from 4.13.16-300 to 4.14.7-300, consequently I no longer have wifi access.

Manually compiling the driver for 4.14.7-300 produces the following warnings:

WARNING: "__vfs_read" [/usr/src/rtl8814au-5.1.5/8814au.ko] undefined!
WARNING: "vfs_read" [/usr/src/rtl8814au-5.1.5/8814au.ko] undefined!

A subsequent insmod 8814au or modprobe 8814au does not load the driver because of an undefined symbol, but does not specify what the symbol is. My assumption it is because of the above warnings.

Having done a search through the headers for kernel 4.14.7-300 I have found that include file fs.h has the definitions for __vfs_read and vfs_read.

In the driver include file osdep_service_linux.h I found the following statements:

#ifdef CONFIG_EFUSE_CONFIG_FILE
        #include <linux/fs.h>
#endif

In an attempt to fix the warnings I did and explicit #include <linux/fs.h>, and recompiled the driver source but doing this did not resolve the warnings.

Does anyone know what I need to do to resolve the warnings and hence make the driver kernel loadable?


regards,

Steve
