Subject: Kernel 2.4.14 link error
Date: Wed, 7 Nov 2001 15:44:14 +1030 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20011107154414.A809@Gromit> (raw)
This is my first nervous attempt at kernel stuff (sweat, panic...)
Kernel 2.4.14 does not link if loopback device is enabled. The link fails
with unresolved extern reference "deactivate_page" in block.o
This function is called from drivers/block/loop.c and is located in
in mm/swap.c for kernel 2.4.13 but not for 2.4.14.
I made a copy of loop.c commented out the references (2) to deactivate_page
and compiled as a module, which seems to work just fine.
Hope this helps
