Public bug reported: When compiling r8168 from source using the code downloaded from the realtek website you are faced with the following errors: r8168-8.036.00/src/r8168_n.c: In function ‘rtl8168_rx_vlan_skb’: r8168-8.036.00/src/r8168_n.c:2237:9: error: too few arguments to function ‘__vlan_hwaccel_put_tag’ In file included from r8168-8.036.00/src/r8168_n.c:46:0: include/linux/if_vlan.h:236:31: note: declared here r8168-8.036.00/src/r8168_n.c: In function ‘rtl8168_hw_set_features’: 8168-8.036.00/src/r8168_n.c:2298:25: error: ‘NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_RX’ undeclared (first use in this function) r8168-8.036.00/src/r8168_n.c:2298:25: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in r8168-8.036.00/src/r8168_n.c: In function ‘rtl8168_init_one’: r8168-8.036.00/src/r8168_n.c:16198:26: error: ‘NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_TX’ undeclared (first use in this function) r8168-8.036.00/src/r8168_n.c:16198:47: error: ‘NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_RX’ undeclared (first use in this function) make[3]: *** [r8168-8.036.00/src/r8168_n.o] Error 1
These are as a result of the following breaking changes: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=f646968f8f7c624587de729115d802372b9063dd and this http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/include/linux/if_vlan.h?id=86a9bad3ab6b6f858fd4443b48738cabbb6d094c I'm not sure exactly in which version of the kernel these appeared. I'm running the latest linux kernel thus I don't think this issue is present on the software center but will be a forthcoming issue. Have attached a non-backward compatible patch fixing the issue (for me). Please review in particular the htons() argument. lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 13.04 Release: 13.04 ** Affects: r8168 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Edward Baunton (edbaunton) Status: New ** Tags: r8168 realtek ** Changed in: r8168 (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Edward Baunton (edbaunton) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1216906 Title: r8168-8.036.00 fails to compile under 3.11.0-rc7 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/r8168/+bug/1216906/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
