The quilt patch titled Subject: kexec_core: change dependency of object files has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was kexec_core-change-dependency-of-object-files.patch This patch was dropped because it was withdrawn ------------------------------------------------------ From: Baoquan He <bhe@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: kexec_core: change dependency of object files Date: Fri, 1 Dec 2023 14:03:25 +0800 When dropping the select of KEXEC for CRASH_DUMP, compiling error will be triggered if below config items are set on some architectures. === CONFIG_CRASH_CORE=y CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE=y CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=y === E.g the building error on loongarch: --------------------------------------------------------------- loongarch64-linux-ld: kernel/kexec_core.o: in function `.L209': >> kexec_core.c:(.text+0x1660): undefined reference to `machine_kexec_cleanup' loongarch64-linux-ld: kernel/kexec_core.o: in function `.L287': >> kexec_core.c:(.text+0x1c5c): undefined reference to `machine_crash_shutdown' >> loongarch64-linux-ld: kexec_core.c:(.text+0x1c64): undefined reference to `machine_kexec' loongarch64-linux-ld: kernel/kexec_core.o: in function `.L2^B5': >> kexec_core.c:(.text+0x2090): undefined reference to `machine_shutdown' loongarch64-linux-ld: kexec_core.c:(.text+0x20a0): undefined reference to `machine_kexec' --------------------------------------------------------------- The reason is that currently in arch/loongarch/kernel/Makefile, building machine_kexec.o relocate_kernel.o depends on CONFIG_KEXEC. So the building of the two object files is skipped because CONFIG_KEXEC=n in that case. And this situation exists in m68k, mips and sh ARCH too. Here, changing the dependency of machine_kexec.o relocate_kernel.o to CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE for all relevant architectures.
