Hi Al, After merging the vfs tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64 allmodconfig) failed like this: /usr/bin/ld: /home/sfr/next/tmp/ccWnssuq.o: in function `dump_attr_TIMESTAMP_INFO': test-fsinfo.c:(.text+0x5d4): undefined reference to `pow' /usr/bin/ld: test-fsinfo.c:(.text+0x618): undefined reference to `pow' /usr/bin/ld: test-fsinfo.c:(.text+0x65c): undefined reference to `pow' /usr/bin/ld: test-fsinfo.c:(.text+0x6a0): undefined reference to `pow' Caused by commit 90b413cb970a ("vfs: syscall: Add fsinfo() to query filesystem information") interacting with commit 8377bd2b9ee1 ("kbuild: Rename HOST_LOADLIBES to KBUILD_HOSTLDLIBS") from the kbuild tree. I have added the following merge fix patch for today: From: Stephen Rothwell Date: Tue, 7 Aug 2018 11:01:32 +1000 Subject: [PATCH] vfs: samples: fix up for HOSTLOADLIBES rename Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell --- samples/statx/Makefile | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/samples/statx/Makefile b/samples/statx/Makefile index 05b4d30cdd3c..6a862bbc0627 100644 --- a/samples/statx/Makefile +++ b/samples/statx/Makefile @@ -7,6 +7,6 @@ always := $(hostprogs-y) HOSTCFLAGS_test-statx.o += -I$(objtree)/usr/include HOSTCFLAGS_test-fsinfo.o += -I$(objtree)/usr/include -HOSTLOADLIBES_test-fsinfo += -lm +HOSTLDLIBS_test-fsinfo += -lm HOSTCFLAGS_test-fs-query.o += -I$(objtree)/usr/include -- 2.18.0 -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell
