This is already documented in many other places, but take care that you will need to apply this patch if you build this kernel using GCC 10 (which is already in core), or you will get an unbootable kernel:

https://git.archlinux.org/linux.git/commit/?h=v5.6.13-arch1&id=53e90d763b7fe8bec6a0c86b6813131cd8e25026

EDIT: This patch is already included in -rc6 so it is unnecessary to include it.

With the 5.7 release, the (currently present) CONFIG_STAGING_EXFAT_FS is gone, replaced by a wholly separate implementation by samsung in CONFIG_EXFAT_FS. This patch removes the staging exfat selections (they're gone anyway) and selects CONFIG_EXFAT_FS as a module: https://brpaste.xyz/NpG3Lg

@miffe you may add makedepend to my new package python-sphinx-2 to fix build of docs

Same people (including me) can't get intel wifi chipsets to work with linux 5.6. Just a warning, hopefully someone will find a fix soon.

Edit: applying this patch should work: https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1263553/ (see this thread https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/frfbz5/the_56_kernel_has_been_released/flwti4p/)

Edit 2: added said patch to the PKGBUILD, and wifi now works.

Now that 5.6 is being tested, this would be a good opportunity to include support for wireguard with CONFIG_WIREGUARD=y.

As an update, it appears the issue was with the default makepkg.conf flags. I changed -mtune=generic to -march=native (might as well, right?) and everything compiled just fine, after ~10 total failed attempts (over the last few days). No idea why that's the case, but it looks like -mtune=generic might be triggering something untowards; posting this in case it helps someone else.

Weird, that's the same version as me. Maybe check the kernel log if it's been OOM killed. Other than that i've no idea.

@miffe: 9.2.0-4 - the latest version in base-devel

@SpaceToast: Looks like gcc crashed. What version are you running?
