Is there some trick to building allyesconfig on PowerPC? When I do try that, I get all sorts of weird build errors, and it dies long before it gets to my driver. I get stuff like: LD arch/powerpc/sysdev/xics/built-in.o WARNING: arch/powerpc/sysdev/xics/built-in.o(.text+0x1310): Section mismatch in reference from the function .icp_native_init() to the function .init.text:.icp_native_init_one_node() The function .icp_native_init() references the function __init .icp_native_init_one_node(). This is often because .icp_native_init lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of .icp_native_init_one_node is wrong. and AS arch/powerpc/kernel/head_64.o arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64s.S: Assembler messages: arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64s.S:1151: Error: attempt to move .org backwards arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64s.S:1160: Error: attempt to move .org backwards make[1]: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel/head_64.o] Error 1 I guess I don't have the right compiler. Anyway, I think I know how to fix the break that Stephen is seeing. I will post a v4 patch in a few minutes. -- Timur Tabi Linux kernel developer at Freescale
