Problem: VBox 6.1.26 guest additions fails to build after Linux kernel upgrade

Post by dry »

Host: windows 10, Gues: Fedora 33 Linux

After update/upgrading guest distro, kernel upgraded to 5.14.9-100 , and VBoxLinuxAdditions does not build anymore. Thus cannot pretty much use any of needed drivers, no full screen works, vbox mounts, etc..

Build log attached.

Rolled back to kernel 5.11.8-200, that still builds & runs ok.
