Nvidia driver not compiling on latest Fedora Rawhide kernel

I appreciate that Rawhide is not a supported version of Fedora. But something has changed in the kernel source or compiler, and the Nvidia drive does not compile, so this will presumably still be broken for the next stable release, Fedora 27.

Compile logs:

Both patches are required as nvidia don’t even support 4.10 yet

@leigh123linux
Since debian does not provide 378.13, can you make a 4.11-patch for 375.39 too?
375.39 in debian has tha patch for 4.10, but not for 4.11 and since that module changing is not really legal, debian will never get such 4.11 patch.

Same problem on Fedora 25 since kernel-4.10.5-200.fc25.x86_64 if the nvidia installer tries to install the DKMS kernel module. Of course the same again yesterday with kernel-4.10.6-200.fc25.x86_64.

@PeterErdelyi

What’s the purpose of your messages? The patches to fix the incompatibility are already provided in this thread.

I’m sorry, but the patch does not work. I just want to make it clear that we need more than the patch. I can not make kernel updates. The last two kernel I can not use. I am using kernel-4.9.14-200.fc25.x86_64. Kernel-4.10.6-200.fc25.x86_64 is also installed. But I must stand on kernel-4.9.14-200.fc25.x86_64 as I DKMS affirm.

@PeterErdelyi The patches work fine here for rawhide with 378.13 (the 4.10 patch works for kernel-4.10)

The previous compile error you posted proves you didn’t apply the patch!

O.K. apologies, I’ve understood it so, Nvidia driver 378.13 includes the patch. I did not know I had to make a patch too. Now it is done, the system is running. Sorry for the trouble.

I kinda don’t recognize NVIDIA any longer. They are now late by almost two kernel releases in providing compatible drivers. I don’t remember if we ever had a situation like this.

@Aaron, what’s up?
