Hi all.
I'm unable to compile the latest kernel and git bisect isn't helping:
Did you try to save .config, run "make distclean" and restore .config?
I hadn't tried that, but had done git reset --hard and make clean
menuconfig bzImage. Trying distclean doesn't help, I'm afraid. Perhaps I
should attach my .config. I'm running a 32 bit kernel/distro on a 64 bit
machine if that makes any difference.
Try to strace scripts/mod/mk_elfconfig to see why it is producing
that error message:
scripts/mod/mk_elfconfig< scripts/mod/empty.o> scripts/mod/elfconfig.h
Error: input truncated
I guess that the empty.o file is not in the expected format.
Yeah. It's zero bytes long.
Who owns that stuff, anyway?
I figured the kbuild guys did, which is why I cc'd them.
You should probably post the empty.o file so that interested parties can
try to debug the problem.
I built the kernel just fine with the .config file that you posted.
Okay. So it's probably something specific to Ubuntu Lucid then. I'll see
if I can find the time to do a bisection by hand.
