Cannot compile driver on Ubuntu 14.04.1 (kernel 3.16) #2
Description
Hi!
(sorry for doubleposting this as a new issue and a comment to the closed one)
I'm experiencing problems compiling the module with the previously mentioned patch applied as specified in the now closed issue on the current kernel in Ubuntu 14.04.1 (3.16.0-31-generic).

According to this bug on Launchpad, explicit declaration of functions in 3.16 kernel onwards might be the issue(?)
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/r8168/+bug/1363072
I can force the module to build by uncommenting:
-Werror-implicit-function-declaration
in file /usr/src/linux-headers-3.17.0-999-generic/Makefile
But the resulting module cannot be loaded due to unknown symbol, even after running !depmod -a" and loading "videodev" first.
Any patch for the current kernels?
