Hi folks, building mips images with a consistent infrastructure is becoming more and more difficult. Current state is as follows. Binutils/ 2.22 2.24 2.25 Kernel 3.2 X - - 3.4 X - - 3.10 X X - 3.14 X X - 3.16 X X - 3.18 X X (X) [1] 4.1 X X (X) 4.4 X X (X) 4.5 X X (X) 4.6 X X (X) next - X (X) [1] (at least) allnoconfig fails to build with binutils 2.25 (2.25.1, more specifically). I used the following toolchains for the above tests: - Poky 1.3 (binutils 2.22) - Poky 2.0 (binutils 2.25.1) - gcc-4.6.3-nolibc from kernel.org (binutils 2.22) - gcc-4.9.0-nolibc from kernel.org (binutils 2.24) For 3.4 and 3.2 kernels to build with binutils v2.24, it would be necessary to apply patch c02263063362 ("MIPS: Refactor 'clear_page' and 'copy_page' functions"). It applies cleanly to 3.4, but has a Makefile conflict in 3.2. It might make sense to apply this patch to both releases. Would this be possible ? This way, we would have at least one toolchain which can build all 3.2+ kernels.
