slightly offtopic, what is the wine env var enabling ntsync? I compiled wine-tkg with ntsync support in the customization.cfg file

_use_ntsync="true"

and disabled all other sync implementations as instructed, but all of them have an env var for actually enabling the sync at runtime, so I guess this also has one? Thanks

How much is it already integraded in vanilla Linux 6.11?

@zwastik Your build of Wine needs to have support for ntsync too (so regular Proton versions won't benefit from this)

So just loading this module will make wine or steam/proton benefit from it? Or do I need to do something else?

Ahoj,

this patch?: https://gist.github.com/TheComputerGuy96/321b49962ec2e2249e33d9caa7c63b9c

Note that if you say license=('GPL-2.0-only WITH Linux-syscall-note') you must install the license file(s) into /usr/share/licenses/${pkgname}, since GPL-2.0-only WITH Linux-syscall-note is not a common license (not at /usr/share/licenses/spdx/).

Besides that: Thanks!, now builds with kernel 6.10.x as well.

@DodoGTA, sure, thanks for the changes. I'll take the important stuff.

@loathingkernel Can you apply at least some of the changes in this patch?: https://gist.github.com/TheComputerGuy96/321b49962ec2e2249e33d9caa7c63b9c

probably this dkms wont even work for 6.10 due to fundamental things not being in place yet, see: https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-6.10-char-misc

The URL you have suggests that ntsync is to be included in the mainline kernel, making this package obsoluete in the furure, correct?

Regards!

Mm, probably this dkms wont even work for 6.10 due to fundamental things not being in place yet, see: https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-6.10-char-misc
