Hi, Looks like a bug with the latest stable Linux kernel and e1000e driver, as I've set -Wno-error which didn't suppress this. By the way, I've always have to set fno-pie in order to build e1000e since the last few versions. Here's more on the changes to timer interface: https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/25/90. It should be easy for Intel to update. Here's my log:
