Linux-5.4.74/drivers/thermal/thermal_sys.ko' is missing

Looks like some dependency of ath10k thermal monitoring triggers this.

Did you build with Kernel modules>Wireless Drivers>mod-ath10k>Enable thermal sensors and throttling support enabled? In the past, when I have, the build ended in errors. I stopped trying. Not sure if that is your problem.

Yes that is precisely what causes the error.

Got the same ERROR:

ERROR: module '/home/OpenWRT/openWRT-buildsystem/openwrt/build_dir/target-x86_64_musl/linux-x86_64/linux-5.4.74/drivers/thermal/thermal_sys.ko' is missing.

For me the fix from this post worked:

specially that did the trick:

cd /home/OpenWRT/openWRT-buildsystem/openwrt/build_dir/target-x86_64_musl/linux-x86_64/linux-5.4.74/drivers/thermal/
cp thermal_core.c thermal_sys.ko

Maybe this "fix" could be implemented in the master code?

I wanted to post this just wasn’t near my laptop and I forgot about my github issue :slight_smile:

Yeah that thinkering still worked ever since I figured it out.

OP:
Also, I used this in a docker container, so your /home/OpenWRT will be different in the end( unless you build a docker debian OpenWRT builder), but the other parts should be the same.

I haven't looked but has anyone opened this in the openwrt bug tracker as suggested by @neheb on the github issue?

Its simple, thermal core was switched to a boolean type upstream and you can build it as a module anymore.
It can be built in or not selected.

OpenWrt module for thermal-core was never updated and It honestly cant be properly fixed as it does not exist as a kernel module anymore.

You can enable the thermal core in kernel config and it should build
