If not, you could try the .config file at > https://pastebin.com/raw/YTZKH9Xe It's due to vmlinux-xip.lds.S explicitly putting sections inside each other . = PAGE_OFFSET + TEXT_OFFSET; Same config fails without thin archives for me. If XIP can't place these dynamically, at least you should use an ASSERT() linker script function if sizes overlap. E.g., ASSERT(. <= PAGE_OFFSET + TEXT_OFFSET, "kernel too big"); . = PAGE_OFFSET + TEXT_OFFSET; -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kbuild" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
