Description Johannes Weiner 2010-09-01 19:30:54 EDT
While trying to build an i386 kernel image from 2.6.32-70.el6 on a x86_64
machine, ld fails when linking signatures into modules:

$ make ARCH=x86
[...]
  LD [M]  Documentation/DocBook/procfs_example.ko.unsigned
  SIGN [M] Documentation/DocBook/procfs_example.ko
ld: Relocatable linking with relocations from format elf32-i386 (Documentation/DocBook/procfs_example.ko.unsigned) to format elf64-x86-64 (Documentation/DocBook/procfs_example.ko) is not supported
make[3]: *** [Documentation/DocBook/procfs_example.ko] Error 1
