Since RHEL 6.3 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as exception or blocker. Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Closing as WONTFIX. Red Hat does not typically support custom builds of our sources. P. |
Created attachment 551975 [details] Removes @note comment from include/linux/elfnote.h Description of problem: Kernel module signing will fail due to the assembler comment bug on some non-x86 platforms. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.32-220 2.6.32-220.2.1 It is arguable whether this is a kernel bug - assembler should perhaps be made to understand @comment constructs, but this is at least a good workaround for now Additional info: Attached patch simply removes the problematic comment from include/linux/elfnote.h
