Description Raghavendra Bhat 2010-05-27 13:11:07 UTC 
Kernel compilation fails in glusterfs-3.0.5rc2.Setup is distributed replicate.  The steps run are:

Untar the linux kernel tarball on the mountpoint.

then,

make defconfig
make dep 
make bzImage 
make modules

It fails sometimes in "make defconfig" and sometimes in make bzImage.
In "make defconfig" it fails saying undefined reference to a file.

In "make bzImage" it fails saying this.

raghu@bigbang:/mnt/hd/linux-2.6.31.1$ sudo make bzImage

It happens with patch submitted for write behind which enforces the ordering of overlapping writes(for bug 762666). Without that patch compilation works fine.
