Hi Shyam,
Sorry, I think I have not made myself clear enough. The error that
doesn't let me sleep at night,
> "Unsupported relocation type: R_X86_64_PLT32"
it is not related at all with my wireless driver. This error pops up
when compiling a Linux Kernel 4.14 from Linus tree with
gcc-{8,7,5,4.9}. The reason of why I'm compiling a linux kernel 4.14
is to identify a commit which introduced a possible regression in my
wireless driver.
To provide some more context, I'm adding the full compile report in
the following links:
Linux 4.14 (+ patches [2,3]) build with gcc-8.2.1
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1tg0iR3dirhW4MhU_3RXcNyvmiJ-j6nBy
Linux 4.14 vanilla build with gcc-4.9.4
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1YJIpVc5VA1xpblQQxHSzrWhTArl5lTKQ
I have already spent too many hours in this detail, so any hint is welcomed :)
Thank you!
