I'll need to look into that one. > Two patches are culprits here: - 'recordmcount: arm64: Replace the ignored mcount call into nop' causes the crash. It is not the C compiler. Maybe some other patch to recordmcount is missing. - 'arm64: mm: use correct mapping granularity under DEBUG_RODATA' uses SWAPPER_BLOCK_SIZE which is not defined in 4.3. This causes a build failure in 4.3 after reverting the above. I didn't check 4.1. Guenter
