Please read the notes at the bottom of the page, specifically: * Build tree is currently created on an ad-hoc basis from Linus' tip, rmk's development tip and arm-soc for-next branches. This system does *not* build and boot vanilla mainline kernels. It is (as the above says): - Linus' tip - My for-next plus a few other bits - arm-soc for-next all merged together. Here's the diffstat between my for-next and the remainder of other stuff that gets built: arch/arm/mach-realview/core.c | 212 ++++++++ arch/arm/mach-realview/core.h | 2 + arch/arm/mach-realview/include/mach/platform.h | 2 + arch/arm/mach-realview/realview_eb.c | 37 ++- arch/arm/mach-realview/realview_pb11mp.c | 33 ++- arch/arm/mach-realview/realview_pba8.c | 3 +- arch/arm/mach-realview/realview_pbx.c | 3 +- arch/arm/mach-versatile/core.c | 482 ++++++++++++++++++- arch/arm/mach-versatile/include/mach/platform.h | 6 + arch/arm/mach-versatile/versatile_pb.c | 17 +- drivers/dma/amba-pl08x.c | 26 +- drivers/tty/serial/omap-serial.c | 30 ++ drivers/tty/serial/serial_core.c | 23 +- include/linux/serial_core.h | 2 + include/sound/soc-dmaengine.h | 26 + sound/soc/Kconfig | 5 + sound/soc/Makefile | 3 + sound/soc/sa11x0/Kconfig | 14 + sound/soc/sa11x0/Makefile | 5 + sound/soc/sa11x0/sa11x0-assabet.c | 432 +++++++++++++++++ sound/soc/sa11x0/sa11x0-ssp.c | 345 +++++++++++++ sound/soc/sa11x0/sa11x0-ssp.h | 11 + sound/soc/soc-dmaengine.c | 591 +++++++++++++++++++++++ 23 files changed, 2283 insertions(+), 27 deletions(-) As far as OMAP goes, that's basically additional bits for serial DMA support that I was working on, best pieced back together before the serial driver was majorly reworked a couple of merge windows ago. These have been there for at least the last three months. The rest are for SA11x0 Assabet sound support, and DMA support on Versatile/Realview platforms. > I was looking at your build system output which shows the boot > state "OMAP4430 SDP: fail".
