Hi,

 

I've built the Ubuntu 18.04 image with legacy kernel (4.4) and tried to install wireguard.

The problem was the kernel module which seems to be build by dkms.

I've installed kernel headers from the linux-headers-rk3328_5.44_arm64.deb (built by armbian's build procedure) and tried to install wireguard-dkms package.

It fails:

Unpacking wireguard-dkms (0.0.20180513-wg1~bionic) over (0.0.20180513-wg1~bionic) ...
Setting up wireguard-dkms (0.0.20180513-wg1~bionic) ...
Loading new wireguard-0.0.20180513 DKMS files...

DKMS make.log for wireguard-0.0.20180513 for kernel 4.4.131-rk3328 (aarch64)

make: *** No rule to make target 'arch//Makefile'.  Stop.
make: Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-headers-4.4.131-rk3328'

The line 643 is

include arch/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile

so SRCARCH is not set for some reason. Any suggestions how to fix it?

 

Also I've tired to build wireguard module manually with dkms and/or from source. In both cases it fails because of absent scripts/recordmcount.

I've tried to build that stuff with 'make scripts' in the /usr/src/linux-headers-4.4.131-rk3328 and this fails too:

  HOSTCC  scripts/selinux/genheaders/genheaders
scripts/selinux/genheaders/genheaders.c:13:10: fatal error: classmap.h: No such file or directory
 #include "classmap.h"

This classmap.h exists in the kernel source tree, but was not included into kernel-headers deb. Do I need to fix something in kernel makefiles?

I've managed to build/install kernel headers correctly and build the wireguard manually. 

Here the is patch I've added to include absent headers (created a userpatches/kernel/rk3328-default/add_more_headers.patch), borrowed from https://github.com/armbian/build/commit/98fca07d8906555ebd419e2cd3eb2a5c0af80298

This unfortunately does not fix the issue with dkms build (empty $SRCARCH), but build from sources is successful.

I’ve just registered to say I have this exact same problem even on the mainline kernel. 

 

I can can also build the module manually but I’d much rather it was done automatically on upgrade. 

 

This topic is nearly a year old, can someone please help fix this empty SRCARCH issue. 

 

Thanks

Wireguard is sourced and compiled at build time. It is possible that its temporally broken - by our fault or by their fault. What about telling us first which kernel are you using? (armbianmonitor -u)
