Hi all, While I'm new to the list I'm aware of the archive and discussions. I don't need friendly advice that I should be using Jari's loopAES :-) OK, when I try and patch 2.4.6 with the international patch 2.4.3.1 I get this reject: patch -p1 -s < patch-int-2.4.3.1 1 out of 3 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file Makefile.rej (-s is silent unless there is a reject. A very useful option that only shows when there are patching problems) The contents of Makefile.rej are: *************** *** 118,130 **** CORE_FILES =kernel/kernel.o mm/mm.o fs/fs.o ipc/ipc.o NETWORKS =net/network.o DRIVERS =drivers/block/block.o \ drivers/char/char.o \ drivers/misc/misc.o \ drivers/net/net.o \ drivers/media/media.o LIBS =$(TOPDIR)/lib/lib.a - SUBDIRS =kernel drivers mm fs net ipc lib DRIVERS-n := DRIVERS-y := --- 118,131 ---- CORE_FILES =kernel/kernel.o mm/mm.o fs/fs.o ipc/ipc.o NETWORKS =net/network.o + CRYPTO =crypto/crypto.o DRIVERS =drivers/block/block.o \ drivers/char/char.o \ drivers/misc/misc.o \ drivers/net/net.o \ drivers/media/media.o LIBS =$(TOPDIR)/lib/lib.a + SUBDIRS =kernel drivers mm fs net ipc lib crypto DRIVERS-n := DRIVERS-y := -------------------------------------------------------- Now I know little about fixing patch rejects. So any newbie advice would be appreciated. It appears the Makefile cannot be successfully patched. Here's the relevant section of the Makefile: CORE_FILES =kernel/kernel.o mm/mm.o fs/fs.o ipc/ipc.o NETWORKS =net/network.o LIBS =$(TOPDIR)/lib/lib.a SUBDIRS =kernel drivers mm fs net ipc lib DRIVERS-n := DRIVERS-y := DRIVERS-m := DRIVERS- := DRIVERS-$(CONFIG_ACPI) += drivers/acpi/acpi.o DRIVERS-$(CONFIG_PARPORT) += drivers/parport/driver.o DRIVERS-y += drivers/char/char.o \ drivers/block/block.o \ drivers/misc/misc.o \ drivers/net/net.o \ drivers/media/media.o ----------------------------- Does this mean the patch failed because someone decided to move the DRIVERS section? If we fix this should we send the fix to Alexander Kjeldaas so he can upload a new 2.4.6 patch without rejects to here: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/crypto/v2.4/ In what form would such a submission look like? Would we send the complete fixed Makefile or a patch for the official 2.4.6 Makefile?
