[arch-general] Update to 4.12.3-1 failed to rebuild DKMS virtualbox modules?
Archdevs, Update tonight to 4.12.3-1, and for the first time in years, DKMS failed to rebuild the VirtualBox kernel modules. Specifically attempting a manual install/build resulted in: # dkms install -m vboxhost -v 5.1.22 Kernel preparation unnecessary for this kernel. Skipping... Building module: cleaning build area... make -j8 KERNELRELEASE=4.12.3-1-ARCH -C /usr/lib/modules/4.12.3-1-ARCH/build M=/var/lib/dkms/vboxhost/5.1.22/build....(bad exit status: 2) Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 4.12.3-1-ARCH (x86_64) Consult /var/lib/dkms/vboxhost/5.1.22/build/make.log for more information. Is this known, expected, or do we need to open a bug? The error from the log centers around: CC [M] /var/lib/dkms/vboxhost/5.1.22/build/vboxdrv/r0drv/linux/memuserkernel-r0drv-linux.o In file included from /var/lib/dkms/vboxhost/5.1.22/build/vboxdrv/r0drv/linux/alloc-r0drv-linux.c:31:0: /var/lib/dkms/vboxhost/5.1.22/build/vboxdrv/r0drv/linux/alloc-r0drv-linux.c: In function ‘VBoxHost_RTMemContAlloc’: /var/lib/dkms/vboxhost/5.1.22/build/vboxdrv/r0drv/linux/the-linux-kernel.h:323:47: error: implicit declaration of function ‘set_pages_x’; did you mean ‘get_page’?

Solved, Updated to vbox v5.1.26 and modules built fine. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
