Seems bug #736675 was opened about this, maybe something will be figured out there. I do assume it has to do with using kernel 5.8.0 + particular configuration though (may want to try non-5.8.0).
I'd want to suspect CONFIG_SMP given kernel's asm-generic/barrier.h has a "#ifdef CONFIG_SMP" to define smp_read_barrier_depends() but it's certainly set in your configs, so likely something else going on like the header not being used  |

Ah yeah, that was me I haven't been able to resolve this on my own so I thought I would open a bug for it.
True, 5.8.0 has been out for a bit now and typically the nvidia drivers are updated by now so I didn't even consider that could be a possibility. I tried to build them on my other nvidia machine as well and also got a build failure there, albeit for different reasons. |

What do you mean by that? As clean as after running make clean or make mrproper or make distclean...?
Before trying anything myself... have you tried building the kernel first? If not, try building it first, then leave the tree "dirty", fraught with the generated object files after building the kernel, then try installing and building nvidia-drivers. I have found that it is not enough just to configure the kernel source tree for building external modules.
I have been installing and running xanmod-sources patched with patches from zen-sources about a day after they are released, the Nvidia proprietary driver has always been built without a glitch.
(That said, my kernel is configured and built on an AMD Ryzen 2700 to run on a wide range of additional configurations, ranging from a dual Socket F AMD Opteron 8439 SE to an AMD FX-8370.) |
