Build error - vmlinux.lds [Re: linux-next: Tree for Jun 18]

[Sachin Kamat]

Hi,

I observe the following build error while building uImage for ARM.

  Kernel: arch/arm/boot/Image is ready
make[2]: *** No rule to make target
`arch/arm/boot/compressed/vmlinux.lds', needed by
`arch/arm/boot/compressed/vmlinux'.  Stop.
make[1]: *** [arch/arm/boot/compressed/vmlinux] Error 2
make: *** [uImage] Error 2

Regards,
Sachin.

Works fine here against an empty object tree:

http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/build/file.php?lid=9591

Are you building into an already-built object tree or rebuilding an
already built tree?

This is likely caused by make getting confused over the dependencies.
I suggest making clean to recover from this error.

I did a clean build after updating the tree to next-20140618.
git status show me the following after doing make clean

# On branch master
# Changes not staged for commit:
#   (use "git add/rm <file>..." to update what will be committed)
#   (use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
#
#    deleted:    arch/arm/boot/compressed/vmlinux.lds.S


My tip of kernel points to commit 4ca1fbc122fcb ("Add linux-next specific
files for 20140618")

I get this error when I do a clean build too.

Hmm.  Please try removing vmlinux.lds.S from extra-y in
arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile and restoring the deleted file.

The above steps work for me. I do not get the aforementioned build
error now.

Thanks.
