With CONFIG_KPROBES=y on Ubuntu 9.10 x86_64 default install, I get the following: Error: Your awk doesn't support charactor-class. Please try to use gawk. CC arch/x86/lib/inat.o arch/x86/lib/inat.c:24:25: error: inat-tables.c: No such file or directory arch/x86/lib/inat.c: In function "inat_get_opcode_attribute": arch/x86/lib/inat.c:29: error: "inat_primary_table" undeclared (first use in this function) arch/x86/lib/inat.c:29: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once arch/x86/lib/inat.c:29: error: for each function it appears in.) arch/x86/lib/inat.c: In function "inat_get_escape_attribute": arch/x86/lib/inat.c:44: error: "inat_escape_tables" undeclared (first use in this function) arch/x86/lib/inat.c: In function "inat_get_group_attribute": arch/x86/lib/inat.c:67: error: "inat_group_tables" undeclared (first use in this function) arch/x86/lib/inat.c: In function "inat_get_avx_attribute": arch/x86/lib/inat.c:85: error: "inat_avx_tables" undeclared (first use in this function) make[1]: *** [arch/x86/lib/inat.o] Error 1 make: *** [arch/x86/lib] Error 2 Either CONFIG_KPROBES=n or 'apt-get install gawk' does the trick, but is this intentional? If it is, the following documentation patch should be applied. -andy --- From: Andy Isaacson <adi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 16 Dec 2009 15:51:30 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Document requirement for gawk.
