What follows is a dirty way of getting DAHDI working with a new 4.13 kernel. The instructions worked for me today, but tomorrow who knows.

They are a slight variation of the OSLEC instructions and patching:

Make sure /usr/src/linux is linked properly.

Code:
cd #somewhere sensible
wget https://github.com/asterisk/dahdi-linux/archive/next.zip
unzip next.zip
cd dahdi-linux-next/
mkdir drivers/staging
cp -fR /usr/src/linux/drivers/misc/echo drivers/staging
sed -i "s|#obj-m += dahdi_echocan_oslec.o|obj-m += dahdi_echocan_oslec.o|" drivers/dahdi/Kbuild
sed -i "s|#obj-m += ../staging/echo/|obj-m += ../staging/echo/|" drivers/dahdi/Kbuild
echo 'obj-m += echo.o' > drivers/staging/echo/Kbuild


Code:
wget https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/secure/attachment/56083/dev_attrs_groups-v3.patch
patch -p1 < dev_attrs_groups-v3.patch
make
make install


Code:
/etc/init.d/asterisk stop
/etc/init.d/dahdi-autoconf restart
/etc/init.d/dahdi restart
/etc/init.d/asterisk start

What problem(s) preclude using the Portage ebuild for this package, possibly with these patches auto-applied by the ebuild?

I believe that the only way of circumventing this error is to use the unfathomably named next.zip, which in turn needs to be patched. That is, emerging dahdi-2.11.1.ebuild returns the error implicit declaration of function ‘touch_softlockup_watchdog’.

Then isn't the solution to create an ebuild that sets the poorly named next.zip as its SRC_URI, to then put an appropriate patch in $FILESDIR, and to use eapply to apply that patch automatically? This would save users both the trouble of performing those steps by hand and the uncertainty of using unverified downloads.

Well, yes, but that puts a hurt on my brain. One day I'll make an ebuild.

For kernel 4.15, in addition to dev_attrs_groups-v3.patch:
Code:
wget https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/secure/attachment/56745/0001-xpp-move-command_timer-functions-to-xbus-core.patch
wget https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/secure/attachment/56746/0002-fix-building-with-4.15-init_timer-setup_timer.patch
patch -p1 < 0001-xpp-move-command_timer-functions-to-xbus-core.patch
patch -p1 < 0002-fix-building-with-4.15-init_timer-setup_timer.patch


And one other thing, boot into the new kernel before building DAHDI.

Please use the bug reporting system to deal with such issues. We really do try but can't monitor the forums too. Just found this by accident looking for a fix for this too.

One correction, the second patch set has an incorrect jira location. It should read

Code:
wget https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/secure/attachment/57149/0002-fix-building-with-4.15-init_timer-setup_timer.patch
