Hi Aleix,
(reminder just in case the email was missed!)
When you post queries/bug reports then you should always Cc maintainers and subsystem specific mailing lists.
You can can find maintainers and mailings lists by: $ cd /path to your kernel source/ $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl /path to your wireless driver file
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!
