To compile kernel modules (for example wireguard) needed package linux-headers-$(uname -r). In precompiled and compiled from repository kernels for BPI-R2 headers are absent. Accordingly, the question is how to build and install this package.
is wireguard checking for the package or source in /usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r)?
if you use my github-releases there is a source-package which you can extract to /usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r)
maybe you can use this to compile additional modules
Dear Frank-w, the archive you specified weighs 950 Mb. Package from Armbian 10 Mb. Clearly the whole is not needed, can it be reduced? Is it possible copy to /usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r) not all , but only necessary part for compile.
Wowā¦950mb are real big for source-package (have not used that)ā¦it seems to be packed after compile (contains binary files and git history too) and maybe already packed filesā¦
I asked travis-team if i can modify this package (it is automaticly created by travis) i have not used it yetā¦
maybe i can pack sourcecode with build.sh/travis.yml, but both will only work for future releases
ok, and finally, do you plan to create a repository for R2 kernels ?
what do you mean with repository for r2-kernels? a apt-mirror? imho i cannot do this with github/gdrive and i cannot do this with my webspace
I unpacked CI-BUILD-20190327_200914-2582bfe25.tar.gz into /usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r) created links to it and have error: root@bpi-r2:~/WireGuard/src# make
ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid. include/generated/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are missing. Run āmake oldconfig && make prepareā on kernel src to fix it.

CC [M] /root/WireGuard/src/main.o In file included from :0:0: ././include/linux/kconfig.h:5:32: fatal error: generated/autoconf.h: No such file or directory #include <generated/autoconf.h>
can someone tell me. I built the wireguard from source
go inside /usr/src/linux-headers-xxx/ and run
./build.sh importconfig
./build.sh
maybe you need to say wireguard-make where your kernelsource is locatedā¦if the Package is big as you said, the autoconf-file should also be there, maybe wireguard searches in wrong directory (or need a link like /usr/src/linux => /usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r))
btw. i took a look in the archiveā¦it seems to be only the source of kernel, no created archive and no binary (.o,.a) files
ok Iāll try tomorrow
compiled 4.14.109 and packed the missing/generated files (include/config,include/generated, Module.symvers): generated_4.14.109.tar.gz (187,6 KB)
Thanks, now the module wireguard is compiled, but it does not load. Is header version error.

Iāll try tomorrow with generated_4.14.109.tar.gz
I add generated_4.14.109.tar.gz wireguard is install withou errors but wireguard.ko not load:

It seems you need additional modules build into kernelā¦so call
./build.sh importconfig
./build.sh config
Here add udp-tunnel and ipv6 tunnel options
and build with
./build.sh
if you got it work on x64 host i can include wireguard into my kernel-repo, but i have not much time to integrate it by myself
Byloby well because the Armbian included wireguard.ko in the kernel
although the ideal solution would be to make linux-headers package
and in which menu item to find these options ?
You can use / to search in menuconfig
There is a number of points ⦠can be a little more detail?
i donāt have the full menuconfig in my mind so i need to lookā¦basicly search for ātunnelā and scroll through the options till one is set to =n and look if it can be one for matching the functions above
how about this:
Symbol: NET_UDP_TUNNEL [=n] ā
ā Type : tristate
special for inet6 i found no optionā¦but there are ipv6-options in the selected by, so i guess ipv6-support is also in the module if globally enabled
does not work. mistake:
581.434540] wireguard: version magic '4.14.109-bpi-r2- SMP mod_unload ARMv7 p2v8 ā should be ā4.14.109-bpi-r2-mainā ?
it seems wireguard uses its own version-string which does not match my kernel naming
maybe you can fix this in the wireguard-source
orā¦
my build.sh adds the āmainā (git branchname) to the normal version, but you donāt use git here, maybe you can fix this by setting
export LOCALVERSION="main"
before running make
