I am on linux 4.20(arch) and it fails to compile.

Did i do anything wrong? Thanks in advance.

I appreciate your report. I've planned to support for Linux-4.20.

It's been some time, any progress so far? Since 5.0 is out already too, you may as well try to support it as well (there may or may not be a need to do so though)

Same error here, running 5.0.7

Any chance of this getting updated?
