make error

[Thomas Beer]

Hi,

I'm trying to install a radio clock software, which
issues make errors. Can anyone guess what may be
wrong. Tryed to modify the pcfclock.c with no positive
result. Any suggestions are highly appreciated.

Thanks Tom

The thing is with source is that quite often it will only compile with a 
spesific kernel-verion-header files/and or spesific libs.

I suggest you check the doc's which i am presuming came with the source and 
see if there is any mention of what the authour used to compile it.

It could also be that he/she used a different compiler than you have.

This could be a simple syntax error in the source, or it could be the result 
of a header file mismatch.

Looking at that i would take a wild guess and say that the software is very 
old indeed and needs lib5 support, thesedays we have Glib's and they are 
mostly not backwards compatable.

Of course it could be something else intyrly...

Did this thing come with a ./configure script?  If so, did you run it
before trying make?

This looks as if it is trying to make a kernel module.  Did you include
module support in 2.4.4 when you configured it?

#
# Loadable module support
#
CONFIG_MODULES=y
CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y
CONFIG_KMOD=y

Did you remember to make modules after you built your kernel, and have
root run "make modules_install"?

This looks as if pcfclock.c is trying to use a macro which is not
defined in any header file.  What follows is fallout.

Thanks for your replies.

I contacted the author of the prog and he 
will commit a new / updated version that
should work :-)

Hello,

I tried to compile the very latest git of v4l-utils.
But, I got an error;

make error

[Gregg Douglas]

Hi,

I have always wanted to contribute, but I am not a coder, I am a Linux
Admin, so I know some bash, perl and php. I came across the following video
: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLBrBBImJt4&feature=related

So I decided even if I clean code it would hopefully make some
contribution. I followed the video and came to the following file that
needed some correction: drivers/staging/bcm/InterfaceDld.c. "checkpatch.pl"
gave 2 errors, both ERROR: "(foo*)" should be "(foo *)", so I fixed the
errors.

I did a "git diff" and it showed the corrections, from the video the next
step is to build the file, I believe the command must be "make
M=drivers/staging/bcm/", but I get the following errors:

  ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid.
         include/generated/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are
missing.
         Run 'make oldconfig && make prepare' on kernel src to fix it.


  WARNING: Symbol version dump /home/douglagm/git/linux-2.6/Module.symvers
           is missing; modules will have no dependencies and modversions.

  LD      drivers/staging/bcm//built-in.o
  Building modules, stage 2.
/home/douglagm/git/linux-2.6/scripts/Makefile.modpost:42:
include/config/auto.conf: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `include/config/auto.conf'.  Stop.
make: *** [modules] Error 2

The error says " Run 'make oldconfig && make prepare' on kernel src to fix
it", but I am a bit nervous to try this, I would please like some guidance
before continuing.

I think the issue is related to my OS's kernel headers, from the kernel
README I am not sure what I need to do ?

I did a bit of searching the net and did not really find some answers, well
that made sense to me. kernelnewbies.org, not sure what is going on there,
get a lot of "*This page does not exist yet. You can create a new empty
page, or use one of the page templates. Before creating the page, please
check if a similar page already exists."*

Gregg

Thanks Anmol, first installed the following extra packages
"linux-kernel-headers kernel-syms module-init-tools" then ran make
oldconfig && make prepare, I get further:
 make M=drivers/staging/bcm/

  WARNING: Symbol version dump /home/douglagm/git/linux-2.6/Module.symvers

I did a git clone git://
git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git
then git branch douglagm - I am working on this.

You should be cloing linux-next[1].

You are seing the above warning message because you have booted from
kernel-Version-X and you are building modules for kernel-Version-Y. To get rid
of this, after cloning the linux-next tree, build the kernel and boot from it.
Building and booting from your fresh kernel is sort of straight forward process
if you are not much concerned about the final kernel image size, etc. Following 
steps on my ubuntu box works fine, might work for you as well.
To build the kernel, in just few steps:

1: # sudo apt-get install build-essential
2: # make oldconfig
3: # make all 
4: # make modules_install install
5: # update-grub
6: # shutdown -r -y now

If you have system has multiple CPUs(see: cat /proc/cpuinfo), you can reduce the
build time by replacing the command in step 3 above as 
3: # make -jX all 
Where X = Number of CPUs

You also need to change your email-client to something else as gmail e-mail
client will not work for sending patches, refer email-clients[2] under
Documentation. I use mutt and this works quite well with gmail smtp server. You
can search for a mutt configuration file over world wide web to work with gmail.

You can also use git send-email command to send patches, but before that you
need to instal git-email add-on. On ubuntu box:
# sudo apt-get install git-email

Then setup smtp configuration
# git config --global sendemail.smtpserver smtp.gmail.com
# git config --global sendemail.smtpserverport 587
# git config --global sendemail.smtpencryption tls
# git config --global sendemail.smtpuser <YOUR_GMAIL_ID@gmail.com>
