I tried the patch-2.6.29-rc4-rt2 real-time patch yesterday and it failed to compile for the power pc. Here is what I tried and the error I got. I can send the config file I used if requested. cd /tmp/ tar -xvjf /tmp/dlsvn/trunk/linux-2.6.29-rc4.tar.bz2 cd /tmp/linux-2.6.29-rc4 patch -p1 < ~/Download/patch-2.6.29-rc4-rt2 cp /tmp/dlsvn/trunk/linux-2.6.29-rc4/.config . setenv CROSS_COMPILE powerpc-linux-gnu- setenv ARCH powerpc setenv PATH /opt/freescale/usr/local/gcc-4.3.50-eglibc-2.8.50/powerpc-linux-gnu/bin:$PATH make CHK include/linux/version.h CHK include/linux/utsrelease.h SYMLINK include/asm -> include/asm-powerpc CC arch/powerpc/kernel/asm-offsets.s In file included from include/linux/mm_types.h:11, from include/linux/sched.h:61, from arch/powerpc/kernel/asm-offsets.c:17: include/linux/rwsem.h:112:1: warning: "DECLARE_RWSEM" redefined In file included from include/linux/rwsem.h:37, from include/linux/mm_types.h:11, from include/linux/sched.h:61, from arch/powerpc/kernel/asm-offsets.c:17: /tmp/dlsvn/trunk/ag/sw/platform/timaru/build/linux-2.6.29-rc4/arch/powerpc/include/asm/rwsem.h:50:1: warning: this is the location of the previous definition In file included from include/linux/mm_types.h:11, from include/linux/sched.h:61, from arch/powerpc/kernel/asm-offsets.c:17: include/linux/rwsem.h:119:1: warning: "init_rwsem" redefined In file included from include/linux/rwsem.h:37, from include/linux/mm_types.h:11, from include/linux/sched.h:61, from arch/powerpc/kernel/asm-offsets.c:17: /tmp/dlsvn/trunk/ag/sw/platform/timaru/build/linux-2.6.29-rc4/arch/powerpc/include/asm/rwsem.h:61:1: warning: this is the location of the previous definition In file included from include/linux/mm_types.h:11, from include/linux/sched.h:61, from arch/powerpc/kernel/asm-offsets.c:17: include/linux/rwsem.h:149: error: redefinition of 'rwsem_is_locked' /tmp/dlsvn/trunk/ag/sw/platform/timaru/build/linux-2.6.29-rc4/arch/powerpc/include/asm/rwsem.h:168: error: previous definition of 'rwsem_is_locked' was here include/linux/rwsem.h: In function 'rwsem_is_locked': include/linux/rwsem.h:151: error: implicit declaration of function 'compat_rwsem_is_locked' make[1]: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel/asm-offsets.s] Error 1 make: *** [prepare0] Error 2 Thanks, David -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rt-users" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
