Hello,

When I tried to build 2.6.36-rc6 on x86_64 allyesconfig,
I got following messages and the build was broken:

After reading comments on CONFIG_DEBUG_FORCE_WEAK_PER_CPU, I am
not sure whether it is intended or not. I think it's not, but
I can't find any report about this though the change was made
last year by 7c756e6e19e71f0327760d8955f7077118ebb2b1. Or Am I
missing something?

Anyway, the breakage was due to conflict between
CONFIG_DEBUG_FORCE_WEAK_PER_CPU and CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO. I think a
kconfig dependency has to be set between them something like:


diff --git a/lib/Kconfig.debug b/lib/Kconfig.debug
index 1b4afd2..bb94392 100644
--- a/lib/Kconfig.debug
+++ b/lib/Kconfig.debug
@@ -634,7 +634,7 @@ config DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE
 
 config DEBUG_INFO
 	bool "Compile the kernel with debug info"
-	depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
+	depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && !DEBUG_FORCE_WEAK_PER_CPU
 	help
           If you say Y here the resulting kernel image will include
 	  debugging info resulting in a larger kernel image.
