Okay, thank you. This was more of a 'I thought you should know if you don't
already'.

The answer is the same for all the drivers: we have identified a fix for the
current Ubuntu. However, currently Ubuntu doesn't have a unique identifier that
allows us to create general workarounds.
The next driver release should have a build fix for Ubuntu. However, this leads
to another question: Ubuntu's release is much more recent than most of our
standalone drivers at this time. For most cases people should stick with the
in-kernel driver. Also, I don't know when the next driver will be released (and
I should know, I've been putting fixes in as they come up).

Subject: [E1000-devel] Intel igb 5.2.5 module not compiling with Ubuntu kernel
3.13.0-30-generic
Hi
I'm having a very similar problem to the one mentioned in this ticket:
http://sourceforge.net/p/e1000/bugs/415/ <-- this is related to the e1000e
module however.
I'm trying to compile the 5.2.5 igb module on Ubuntu 14.04 with a
3.13.0-30-generic kernel, and I get the following errors:
$sudo make install
make -C /lib/modules/3.13.0-30-generic/build

Unfortunately the ticket linked to above does not offer any suggestions that
work for me (making with "make CFLAGS_EXTRA=-Dskb_set_hash" didn't work) and an
updated module was released soon enough that it wasn't a problem.
Currently I am using the 5.1.2 module version which has no problems building.
Thank You, I hope this helps
David
