Linux 2.6.29-rc6 bombs while compiling a kernel for a linkstation/kurobox

["Rogério Brito" <rbrito@ime.usp.br>]

Hi there.

I tried to compile a new kernel for my (powerpc) Kurobox HD (an embedded
system that has a Freescale processor), but it seems that the
compilation fails, with both my usual config file and with the shipped
linkstation_defconfig file.

I get the following error during compilation (actually a
cross-compilation):

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
arch/powerpc/platforms/built-in.o: In function `linkstation_setup_arch':
linkstation.c:(.init.text+0x218): undefined reference to `physmap_set_partitions'
drivers/built-in.o:(__ksymtab+0x9f8): undefined reference to `physmap_set_partitions'
make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I didn't have such problems with, say, kernel 2.6.28. If anybody could
help, I would be glad to test any patches.

(Well, I already tried "blindly" adding an EXPORT_SYMBOL to
physmap_set_partitions under the mtd subtree, but it wasn't enough to
fix this issue).


Thanks in advance for any help, Rogério Brito.
