The patch titled uml: fix biarch gcc build on x86_64 has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is uml-fix-biarch-gcc-build-on-x86_64.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: uml: fix biarch gcc build on x86_64 From: Jeff Dike <jdike@xxxxxxxxxxx> I run an x86_64 kernel with i386 userspace (Ubuntu Dapper) and decided to try out UML today. I found that UML wasn't quite aware of biarch compilers (which Ubuntu i386 ships). A fix similar to what was done for x86_64 should probably be committed (see http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113425940204010&w=2). Without the FLAGS changes, the build will fail at a number of places and without the LINK change, the final link will fail.
