[gcc 3.1] i686 build failure using SRPM of kernel-2.4.9-34 (kdbmain.o)
Last modified: 2007-04-18 12:43:13 EDT
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; SunOS 5.8 sun4u) Description of problem: Couple of errors in this bug post - first, the easy one: In the kernel-2.4.9-i386.config file from the SRPM, it contains two entries for EXT3=m. If it's not in this config file, it's one of the other i386*config files; i already fixed it and forgot the exact i386 config file. Doh! :) i've built a bootstrapped gcc 3.1 and have been using it to recompile the kernel SRPM. Both i386 and i586 were sucessful, but the i686 build barfed on kdbmain.o. Output below: /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.4.9/linux/include/asm/checksum.h:72:30: warning: multi-line string literals are deprecated /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.4.9/linux/include/asm/checksum.h:105:17: warning: multi-line string literals are deprecated /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.4.9/linux/include/asm/checksum.h:121:13: warning: multi-line string literals are deprecated /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.4.9/linux/include/asm/checksum.h:161:17: warning: multi-line string literals are deprecated kdbmain.c:71: conflicting types for `kdb_nextline' /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.4.9/linux/include/linux/kdbprivate.h:70: previous declaration of `kdb_nextline' make[2]: *** [kdbmain.o] Error 1 make[1]: *** [first_rule] Error 2 make: *** [_dir_kdb] Error 2 error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.75128 (%build) RPM build errors: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.75128 (%build) Command used to build RPM (as root): nohup rpm -ba --target i686 SPECS/kernel-2.4.spec & Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install kernel-2.4.9-34 SRPM (using gcc3.1) 2. Issue nohup rpm -ba --target i686 SPECS/kernel-2.4.spec & 3. Tail nohup.out and it'll fail on kdbmain.o Actual Results: i686 kernel build failed... Expected Results: Should have completed build of kernel... Additional info: [root@compilo root]# which gcc; gcc -v /usr/local/bin/gcc Reading specs from /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.1/specs Configured with: ./configure --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --disable-checking --with-system-zlib Thread model: posix gcc version 3.1 I have the nohup.out log if you want it...
We know the 2.4.9 kernel isn't ready for gcc 3.1. It's not in several places ;( For this specific case you can change %define builddebug 1 to %define builddebug 0 near the top of the spec file
worked like a charm...
