failed to do make menuconfig

failed to do make menuconfig

[Prashant Shah]

Hi,

In the latest staging tree I cant do "make menuconfig" or even "make config"

prashant at mint11 ~/linux-2.6 $ make menuconfig
  HOSTCC  scripts/kconfig/mconf.o
  HOSTCC  scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.o
In file included from scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.c:90:0:
scripts/kconfig/lkc.h:27:22: fatal error: lkc_defs.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
make[1]: *** [scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.o] Error 1
make: *** [menuconfig] Error 2

Even against the latest linux 3.0.0 tree I get this

  HOSTCC  scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.o
In file included from scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.c:90:0:
scripts/kconfig/lkc.h:27:22: fatal error: lkc_defs.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
make[1]: *** [scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.o] Error 1
make: *** [menuconfig] Error 2

I am using latest version of Mint Linux

Does it work if you run "make mrproper" first?

I read the scripts/kconfig/lkc.h file and it #includes the
"lkc_defs.h" file which actually does not exists anywhere in the
kernel source tree.

Probably the file lkc_defs.h is created during kernel compilation time
itself and then subsequently used. I have seen examples of this kind of
compilation in other Operating Systems.

You are right. This line in the Makefile for kconfig seems to do that.

$(obj)/lkc_defs.h: $(src)/lkc_proto.h
        $(Q)sed < $< > $@ 's/P(\([^,]*\),.*/#define \1 (\*\1_p)/'
