latest git: compile error: arch/powerpc/kernel/built-in.o

[Wolfgang Pfeiffer]

Hi All

I'm trying to compile a fresh git kernel, with latest sources pulled today,
Aug. 10. To no avail so far. 

OS is Debian/unstable, last time I upgraded the system as far as the
dependencies allowed doing that was yesterday, Aug. 10.

---------------------
$ cat /proc/cpuinfo 
processor       : 0
cpu             : 7447A, altivec supported
clock           : 833.333000MHz
revision        : 0.5 (pvr 8003 0105)
bogomips        : 16.57
timebase        : 8320000
platform        : PowerMac
machine         : PowerBook5,8
motherboard     : PowerBook5,8 MacRISC3 Power Macintosh 
detected as     : 287 (PowerBook G4 15")
pmac flags      : 00000019
L2 cache        : 512K unified
pmac-generation : NewWorld
-----------------------------

Here's the config I used:

http://wolfgangpfeiffer.com/config.060810.txt

The compile messages:

--------------------------------
time MAKEFLAGS="CC=gcc-4.1"  fakeroot make-kpkg --append-to-version=-060810 kernel_image

results in [excerpts]:

Yes. Works. Although I could take the patches on the pages above from the
the corresponding messages that are still in my mail folder ... :)

Strange tho' - for me at least - that these patches from about 5 weeks (!)
ago still don't seem to have made it into the current git tree ...

Ditto: Thanks. To Michael Ellerman, too :)

Hmm, yeah. My fault for not chasing them up :)

Paul, any objection to these two?

5 weeks ago was a particularly bad time for patches trying to get into
the git tree, since I was on vacation and then travelling to OLS. :)

I've picked up these patches now and I'll send them on for inclusion
in 2.6.18.

Paul.

Michael, Paul, and everyone else being involved:

My apologies for my perhaps too strong wording when I was complaining
about the delay ... I didn't mean the words as ugly as they actually
might read ...

And after all <wild guess following ... :) > if there were more folks
actually compiling these kernels on machines like the one mentioned,
*and* telling about the results, the delay perhaps would have been
much shorter .. :)

Thanks for your fine work for this software, to everyone out there in
Kernel City.

Best Regards
Wolfgang

No worries, thanks for catching the error and reporting it.

I've hit the same build error in 2.6.18-rc4. Maybe the patches should also be added to the main kernel tree?

Niels Kristian
