Compilation failing

[chowbok]

Hi, trying to build this on a "Linux from Scratch" build and getting an error. Here's my output:

: ---------------------------
: install-driver.sh v20231115
: x86_64 (kernel architecture)
: x86_64 (architecture to send to gcc)
: 8/8 (in-use/total processing units)

: gcc (version of gcc used to compile the kernel)
: gcc (GCC) 14.1.0

The kernel is built without module signing facility, modules won't be signed

Run the following before reattempting installation.
$ sudo ./remove-driver.sh

The first error in make.log looks like this (I can attach the entire log if you like):

Thanks for taking a look.

I have pushed a patch that I think fixes the problem. Can I get a report from you?

$ git pull
$ sudo sh install-driver.sh

Also, it you are interested in testing, read the first message in this issue:

#115

That fixed it. Thanks!
