Hi Andy,
After merging the luto-misc tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) failed like this:
In file included from arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/bitsperlong.h:10:0,
from include/uapi/asm-generic/int-ll64.h:11,
from include/uapi/asm-generic/types.h:6,
from arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/types.h:4,
from tools/include/linux/types.h:9,
from include/uapi/linux/elf.h:4,
from arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso2c.c:66:
tools/include/asm-generic/bitsperlong.h:32:2: error: #error Inconsistent word size. Check asm/bitsperlong.h
#error Inconsistent word size. Check asm/bitsperlong.h
^
Caused by commit
6436d4c1a83c ("x86/vdso: Fail the build if the vdso image has no dynamic section")
interacting with commit
2a00f026a15d ("tools: Fix up BITS_PER_LONG setting")
from the tip tree.
I am not sure why 6436d4c1a83c does this ... maybe it just causes
arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso2c.c to be rebuilt?
I applied this partial revert of the latter commit:
