Hi all, I am trying to compile linux kernel version 2.4.19 and 2.4.20 for a MIPS processor. GNU Compiler and linker version is 2.95.4. ----------------- Compilation: ------------------ Using compilation options: mips-linux-gcc -D__KERNEL__ -D__linux__ -D_MIPS_SZLONG=32 -I/usr/emb_linux/linux-2.4.20/include -D__linux__ -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -fomit-frame-pointer -I /usr/emb_linux/linux-2.4.20/include/asm/gcc -G 0 -mno-abicalls -fno-pic -pipe -g -mcpu=r4600 -mips2 -Wa,--trap -DUTS_MACHINE='"mips"' I have got a tons of warnings named as: {standard input}: Assembler messages: {standard input}:784: Warning: Macro instruction expanded into multiple instructions {standard input}:784: Warning: No .cprestore pseudo-op used in PIC code Can anybody help out to remove these warnings? ---------------------- Linking ------------------- Using linking options: mips-linux-ld -G 0 -static -T arch/mips/ld.script I have got a tons of error messages named as: relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_PC16 cache_parity_error relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_PC16 no symbol relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_PC16 no symbol I would be obliged if somebody can explain how GNU linker is taking R_MIPS_PC16 as relocation type and what is the remedy to remove these error messages?
