Andreas, doing builds of all MIPS defconfigs I observed a fair number of them were failing to build with errors like these: cobalt_defconfig: CC [M] drivers/hid/usbhid/hid-quirks.o LD [M] drivers/hid/usbhid/usbhid.o FATAL: drivers/hid/usbhid/usbhid: sizeof(struct usb_device_id)=32 is not a modulo of the size of section __mod_usb_device_table=48. Fix definition of struct usb_device_id in mod_devicetable.h make[5]: *** [drivers/hid/usbhid/usbhid.o] Error 1 gpr_defconfig: LD [M] drivers/atm/fore_200e.o FATAL: drivers/atm/fore_200e: sizeof(struct pci_device_id)=32 is not a modulo of the size of section __mod_pci_device_table=56. Fix definition of struct pci_device_id in mod_devicetable.h make[4]: *** [drivers/atm/fore_200e.o] Error 1 jazz_defconfig: Building modules, stage 2. MODPOST 355 modules FATAL: drivers/block/floppy: sizeof(struct pnp_device_id)=16 is not a modulo of the size of section __mod_pnp_device_table=24. Fix definition of struct pnp_device_id in mod_devicetable.h make[3]: *** [__modpost] Error 1 malta_defconfig: LD [M] drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio/cxgb3/cxgb3.o FATAL: drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio/cxgb3/cxgb3: sizeof(struct pci_device_id)=32 is not a modulo of the size of section __mod_pci_device_table=392. Fix definition of struct pci_device_id in mod_devicetable.h make[7]: *** [drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio/cxgb3/cxgb3.o] Error 1 make[6]: *** [drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio/cxgb3] Error 2 make[5]: *** [drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio] Error 2 etc. I can reproduce the issue can only building with a separate object directory. Reverting 6543becf26fff612cdadeed7250ccc8d49f67f27 [mod/file2alias: make modalias generation safe for cross compiling] fixes these for me. Ralf
