udev's klibc and kernel 2.6.9-rc2

udev's klibc and kernel 2.6.9-rc2

[Bob Barry]

While making an initrd for kernel 2.6.9-rc2, I found that udev's klibc did not compile.
Attempted compilation of udev-032 with command line:
	make clean; make USE_KLIBC=true USE_LOGúlse DEBUGúlse
ends with:
	make[2]: *** [inet/inet_ntoa.o] Error 1
	make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/bobb/udev/udev-032/klibc/klibc'
	make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
	make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/bobb/udev/udev-032/klibc'
	make: *** [/home/bobb/udev/udev-032/klibc/klibc/crt0.o] Error 2

I got klibc-0.157.tar.bz2 (stable) and klibc-0.178.tar.bz2 (not stable) to see if they would compile.
Klibc-0.157 fails with:
	make: *** [inet/inet_ntoa.o] Error 1
Klibc-0.178 compiles successfully.

I'm using gcc-3.2.3. Compilation of udev for initrd of previous kernels had no problem.

Suggestions?  Is klibc-0.178 compatible with udev?

Thanks,

Bob Barry

Not at the moment. We get segfaults with klibc's strncpy(). I'm
currently looking into it. Will soon post something, if I can nail it
down.
