@alexdw - Same exact thing here (just so you know). Thanks for all your work!

Confirmed broken for me with kernel 4.8.4 (possibly all 4.8) - osstest causes segmentation fault with any of the oss packages (oss, oss-git, oss-nonfree). I might not have too much time to investigate at the moment, but for a start have posted a topic on the OSS forums: http://ossnext.trueinstruments.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=5837

@kgunders: Thank you! I think I've posted a patch or two on the OSS forums before but I haven't looked at getting them directly upstream. I'll have a look this weekend after checking what's going on with kernel 4.8.2.

alexdw- you do an awesome job of keeping ossv4 up on arch. Have you ever tried to get your patches merged upstream? Would maybe be nice for other distro maintainters not to have to reinvent the wheel every kernel update.

@KennyLives: Thanks for the heads-up. I'll try to have a look at this over the weekend.

October 19 2016: Broken after kernel update 4.8.2-1-ARCH

alexdw commented on 2016-06-14 23:10 (UTC)

Uploaded a new version with a patch to allow compilation with kernel 4.6. Thanks again to kgunders and ratatat for the information.

OK, I just had a look at this and I think it's due to a mismatch between the return type of the function "osspci_remove" in "pci_wrapper.inc" (static int) and the ".remove" component of the "pci_driver" structure (void). A patch on "pci_wrapper.inc" to resolve this mismatch should hopefully fix this.

@ratatat: Thanks for the information. From that I wonder if the easy fix would be to change the compiler parameters to not treat this warning as an error? Probably it would be better to actually fix the code to not trigger this warning.
