The failure is reported in guest additions at /tmp/vbox.0/vbox_fb.c:337 while building against Ubuntu’s Linux 6.8 kernel; the issue also says the build succeeds with 5.15. Start by reading the corresponding vbox_fb.c code and the uploaded build logs, then compare the kernel interfaces used by both versions. Done means guest additions compile successfully against 6.8 without breaking the reported 5.15 build.

What happened?

Compiling guest additions in the process of routine upgrade of the kernel to 6.8.0-149 in Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS I am getting (via apt upgrade):

warning: the compiler differs from the one used to build the kernel
  The kernel was built by: x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc-12 (Ubuntu 
12.3.0-1ubuntu1~22.04.3) 12.3.0
  You are using:           gcc-12 (Ubuntu 12.3.0-1ubuntu1~22.04.3) 12.3.0

Why is that? They look quite identical to me!

This is fatal, though:

Meanwhile, kernel 5.15.0-203 (which comes in the same upgrade) compiled guest additions without any issues.

I'm using the most up to date VirtualBx 7.2.22-175245 with its current extension package of the same version (7.2.22)

How can we reproduce this?

I don't know how can "you" reproduce this, but it's obviously a compilation bug suggesting that some feature macros (such as for the kernel version number) were not placed around the pieces of code, which are version-dependent (because an earlier kernel 5.15.0-203 does not show the same problem).

Did you upload all of your necessary log files, screenshots, etc.?
