From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 Date: Fri, 5 Jan 2001 21:06:28 +0100 From: Michael Holzt To: linuxppc-dev@lists.linuxppc.org Subject: Bugs in 2.4.0-ac2 in ppc Message-ID: <20010105210627.D1095@fqdn.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Sender: owner-linuxppc-dev@lists.linuxppc.org List-Id: While trying to compile LinuxPPC 2.4.0-ac2 for an embedded PPC i found three problems: - function set_pgdir disappeared somewhere late in the 2.4.0test series. I had to copy the source from an older kernel to get the kernel to compile. - In ac2 the following source in asm-ppc/mmu_context.h is removed: #ifdef CONFIG_8xx extern inline void mmu_context_overflow(void) { atomic_set(&next_mmu_context, -1); } #endif When compiling on for a 8xx this leads to errors due to nonexisting function mmu_context_overflow. - And third the worst problem: Since one of the latest test series kernels i'm unable to use modules: For all modules i try i get unresolved symbols - for trivial functions: bash-2.03# insmod ./loop.o ./loop.o: unresolved symbol memset ./loop.o: unresolved symbol int_control_R58a1efa3 ./loop.o: unresolved symbol __copy_tofrom_user_Re410a3dd ./loop.o: unresolved symbol memcpy ./loop.o: unresolved symbol strncpy_R328a05f1 As i'm no kernel-developer, i'm not subscribed to this list. So if replying, please make a courtesy-copy to me privately. I really would like to see these problems fixed. Thanks. -- Greetings Michael ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list.
