Building latest virtualbox-modules version in portage against kernel 4.14-rcX leads to a failure:

Thanks! Did worked for me. I was able to compiles virtualbox-modules with 4.14.
Comment 3 Aleksandr K. 2017-11-14 12:01:00 UTC
Thank you, with kernel 4.14.0 and this patch can compile virtualbox-modules.

W/o patch - was compilation error.
Comment 4 Silvio 2017-11-18 17:57:17 UTC
When it will be included in the main stream?
Comment 5 Ivan Iraci 2017-11-20 14:39:46 UTC
Same problem here.
Comment 6 Juergen Rose 2017-11-23 09:05:02 UTC
The same error happens with 4.13.12-gentoo, if  /usr/src/linux is a link to linux-4.14.0.

Juergen, if the link is to 4.14.0 it is creating module for that kernel! 
It is wrong to say that happens with other kernel.
Comment 9 Herb Miller Jr. 2017-11-23 23:13:48 UTC
You're going to need this one too now.

ebuild with patches for virtualbox-modules-5.1.30

The above mentioned patches for 5.1.28 and 5.1.30 both work with kernel 4.14.2.

I've attached my ebuild.
Comment 12 Chris Faulkner 2017-11-26 22:22:31 UTC
I have tried the patch, the ebuild, nothing will get me past the -modules part

Comment 14 Guilherme Amadio gentoo-dev 2017-11-27 14:08:18 UTC
I applied the udp patch to 5.1.30 and it at least compiled for me with gentoo-sources-4.14.2.

Could someone please comment on why the second patch above is necessary?
I used only the first patch on 5.1.30.

It's not. That was my mistake because I keep forgetting I'm ahead of everyone else's system. The second one won't be necessary until kernel 4.15.
