5.12.0 version has been released in morrownr fork

You need to uninstall the package and then reinstall it. It will then compile, but there is still the message "Deprecated feature: REMAKE_INITRD".

It does not compile anymore with kernel v5.15 /var/lib/dkms/rtl8821cu/5.4.1118f1bc7e8/build/core/rtw_br_ext.c:20:18: fatal error: net/ipx.h: No such file or directory 20 | #include <net/ipx.h>

This is due to kernel commit 6c9b40844751 ("net: Remove net/ipx.h and uapi/linux/ipx.h header files"), merged in v5.15-rc1

Please consider switching to the morrownr fork - the current brektrou fork uses the net/ipx network layer which has been deprecated and removed altogether as of kernel 5.15.3.

I've just reinstalled the driver and it works great with both linux 5.10.47-1-lts and 5.12.14-arch1-1

I suggest you all to upgrade to this newer version.

I followed the advice, but still nothing.

sudo sed -i s/GRO_DROP/GRO_MERGED_FREE/ /usr/src/rtl8821cu-5.4.11202e43634/os_dep/linux/recv_linux.c sudo dkms install -m rtl8821cu -v 5.4.11202e43634 Kernel preparation unnecessary for this kernel. Skipping...

Quick fix from upstream bug report for those that need this working asap (will be overwritten on next package update):

# sed -i s/GRO_DROP/GRO_MERGED_FREE/ /usr/src/rtl8821cu-5.4.1118f1bc7e8/os_dep/linux/recv_linux.c
# dkms install -m rtl8821cu -v 5.4.1118f1bc7e8
# modprobe 8821cu

@Ilgaz That package is for a separate upstream repo, which doesn't use DKMS. It's also available in the AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rtl8821cu-git/

As for this one, it seems someone went ahead and reported the problem upstream: https://github.com/brektrou/rtl8821CU/issues/132

Ilgaz commented on 2021-05-06 06:34 (UTC)

I am using it under kernel 5.12 on openSUSE TW via this package (perhaps it can help) https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home%3ASauerland/rtl8821cu
