Allyesconfig for powerpc still Failing

Allyesconfig for powerpc still Failing

[Nick Krause]

Today I tested the allyesconfig for powerpc and it seems to be still
failing according to my tests.
Below are the error messages I get before the jobs finish and exit
failing the build.
Cheers Nick

Yes, it's a trainwreck and I don't know how to fix it yet ... I tried
various more or less invasive approaches and none of them worked
properly so far. I need to spend more time on this.

Cheers,
Ben.

Yes, it's a trainwreck and I don't know how to fix it yet ... I tried
various more or less invasive approaches and none of them worked

I submitted a patch to work around this problem a couple of weeks ago [1].
Unfortunately, with this patch applied, allyesconfig still fails with
relocation errors, but at least the above message is gone, and
allmodconfig passes.

Maybe we can convince Ben to accept the patch ...

Thanks,
Guenter

Hi Nick,

Just follow the link above, select 'forward', and follow the directions.
You'll get the patch per e-mail.

Alternative:

wget "http://download.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1736036/1736037"

The patch will be in a file named '1736037'.

I copied the list for others, in case the 'how to download a patch'
question comes up again.

Guenter,
Your patch works for me in building the powerpc allyesconfig.
This is one news, I am going to send this patch to Ben.
Cheers Nick

Powerpc allyesconfig seems to be succeeding as of me pulling upstream
today. On the other hand I get one
randconfig build to succeed and the second fails. I will attach my log
of the failing build.
