Problems Compiling Kernel Module
Hi
I just upgraded a virtual CentOS from 7.5 to 7.6 and now the VirtualBox Extensions won’t compile with the kernel.
I looked into the log file and found that I should try to execute:
make oldconfig && make prepare
but I get this result:
scripts/kconfig/conf –oldconfig Kconfig
#
# configuration written to .config
#
scripts/kconfig/conf –silentoldconfig Kconfig make[1]: *** No rule to make target `arch/x86/syscalls/syscall_32.tbl’, needed by
`arch/x86/syscalls/../include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_32.h’. Stop. make: *** [archheaders] Error 2
What could be wrong?

One thought on - Problems Compiling Kernel Module
Are you using the 5.2.23 test version of VirtualBox? 5.2.22 won’t work, as mentioned in the release notes at https://wiki.CentOS.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOS7.1810
“If you use VirtualBox to run CentOS 7.6.1810 as a guest with a GUI, you need version 5.2.23 to build graphics drivers. See VBox ticket 18093
<https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/18093>. Also, the mouse may not work properly as reported in this VBox forum thread
