Install kernel headers and other dependencies.

# sudo apt-get install linux-image-rpi-rpfv linux-headers-rpi-rpfv raspberrypi-kernel-headers dkms build-essential bc

Append following at the end of your /boot/config.txt, reboot your Pi

kernel=vmlinuz-3.10-3-rpi
initramfs initrd.img-3.10-3-rpi followkernel

Edit Makefile and turn on CONFIG_PLATFORM_ARM_RPI, turn off CONFIG_PLATFORM_I386_PC

CONFIG_PLATFORM_I386_PC = n
CONFIG_PLATFORM_ARM_RPI = y

# cd /usr/src/rtl8812au
# sudo make clean
# sudo make
# sudo make install
# sudo modprobe -a rtl8812au

Compiling for Ubuntu (16.04)

Download archive into temp directory

# mkdir -p /tmp/t4u
# cd /tmp/t4u
# wget https://github.com/abperiasamy/rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux/archive/master.zip
