It looks like all rtl88xx drivers are having problem with 5.3.1 kernel. I am looking into this to see if we need a patch to handle a kernel API change.

I'd like to add to the comment by @a_manthey.
The driver indeed doesn't work on 5.3.1.
TP-Link Archer T9UH (AC1900) is not recognized anymore. It still shows up in the query lsusb. However, it fails to show up in the query iw dev.

Driver builds on 5.3 without errors
Edimax AC 1750 (id 7392:a833) is no longer recognized
lsusb runs infinitely without showing Edimax AC 1750 (id 7392:a833)
shutdown of pc and notebook stops at this point:
systemd-shutdown[1]: Syncing filesystems and blockdevices.
systemd-shutdown[1]: Sending SIGTERM to remainig processes ...
systemd-journald[557]: Received SIGTERM from PID 1 (systemd-shutdown).
systemd-shutdown[1]: waiting for process: systemd-udevd, systemd-udevd
systemd-udevd[593]: Giving up waiting for workers to finish.
systemd-udevd[593]: Event loop failed: Connection timed out
downgrade of systemd to 243.0-1 doesn't fix it.

@zebulon Build and Install looks clean - driver is functioning on 5.2.
Thank you!
zebulon commented on 2019-07-10 12:48 (UTC)
@nepenthe: I have merged the patch for 5.2 support. Please try again and let me know if this works. Thanks.

Here's what I saw in relation to kernel 5.2 -- ugh, formatting, looking at Wiki for formatting help.

@andrej: can you copy the part of the log that shows the error? Thanks.
andrej commented on 2019-06-10 04:36 (UTC)
This just keeps failing to build via DKMS across a few last kernel versions. :-(
zebulon commented on 2019-05-16 09:51 (UTC)
Updated for kernel 5.1.
itsmattson commented on 2019-01-29 03:56 (UTC)
Thanks @zebulon! I learned something from that so I uninstalled it and reinstalled it your way via downloading snapshot, untarring, and using makepkg -i and r40 came down as you suggested which is great! I thought I had to go via github to get the latest because package details at the top of page says "rtl8814au-dkms-git 4.3.21.r34.ga0c4479-2". Apologies for the misunderstanding - This has certainly simplified AUR package updates for me :)

To all having an issue with this driver: please try https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rtl8814au-aircrack-dkms-git alternatively.
