I bet there will be problems with coming vanilla-sources-4.14.10 I do my own kernel: Downloaded and extracted linux-4.14.10 I did try with my own special .config and an ordinary Debian: --- make --jobs=3 all CHK include/config/kernel.release CHK include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h HOSTCXX -fPIC scripts/gcc-plugins/latent_entropy_plugin.o DESCEND objtool HOSTCC /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/fixdep.o HOSTLD /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/fixdep-in.o LINK /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/fixdep CC /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/exec-cmd.o CC /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/help.o CC /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/pager.o CC /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/parse-options.o HOSTLLD -shared scripts/gcc-plugins/latent_entropy_plugin.so CC /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/arch/x86/decode.o CC /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/run-command.o CC /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/sigchain.o CC /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/subcmd-config.o LD /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/libsubcmd-in.o LD /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/arch/x86/objtool-in.o AR /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/libsubcmd.a CC /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/builtin-check.o CC /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/builtin-orc.o CC /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/check.o CC /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/orc_gen.o CC /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/orc_dump.o CC /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/elf.o CC /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/special.o CC /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/objtool.o CC /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/libstring.o CC /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/str_error_r.o LD /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/objtool-in.o make[2]: execvp: ./sync-check.sh: Permission denied make[2]: *** [Makefile:49: /common/src/linux-4.14/tools/objtool/objtool] Error 127 make[1]: *** [Makefile:62: objtool] Error 2 make: *** [Makefile:1629: tools/objtool] Error 2 ---
Disabling the GCC latent_entropy_plugin - same result
Whats interesting: As I make the kernel as root there should no be no problem with permissions --- # vdir $(find . -name sync-check.sh) -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 30. Dez 02:54 ./.pc/arelease/patch-4.14.10/tools/objtool/sync-check.sh -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 584 30. Dez 02:54 ./tools/objtool/sync-check.sh --- I am clueless. Never happened to me failing to compile the kernel.
Same here. Execution flags are missing and # chmod 755 /tools/objtool/sync-check.sh seems to fix it.
According to https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/log/tools/objtool/sync-check.sh sync-check.sh should have +x already set. Does Gentoo apply any changes to this?
The reason why sync-check.sh doesn't have the necessary permission is apparently that the incremental patch from 4.14 to 4.14.10 does *not* correctly set permissions: > diff --git a/tools/objtool/sync-check.sh b/tools/objtool/sync-check.sh > new file mode 100755 > index 000000000000..1470e74e9d66 > --- /dev/null > +++ b/tools/objtool/sync-check.sh > @@ -0,0 +1,29 @@ > +#!/bin/sh > ... After applying this patch to the 4.14 sources, sync-check.sh appears, but without +x permissions.
@Cedric, I didn't dare to # chmod 755 tools/objtool/sync-check.sh because of the strange error message: "make[2]: execvp: ./sync-check.sh: Permission denied" I don't know "execvp" I looked into patch-4.14.10: # grep -A 3 -e'^new file mode' patch-4.14.10|grep -B 3 -e'sync-check.sh' new file mode 100755 index 000000000000..1470e74e9d66 --- /dev/null +++ b/tools/objtool/sync-check.sh The issue is a missing feature of sys-devel/patch-2.7.5 The patch utility does not bother about file mode of sync-check.sh It only can set a standard 644 mode Downloading the full patche kernel.org source https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/linux-4.14.10.tar.xz also shows correcty set execution file mode of sync-check.sh These days all people use git not patch any more :(

This still happens with vanilla-sources (checked with 4.14.10 renamed to 4.14.11 which isn't in the tree yet, but that doesn't matter). A change in gentoo-specific patches doesn't help, so I'm marking this as non-duplicate.
this patch is not solving the problem ? http://www.ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/tools-objtool-makefile-dont-assume-sync-checksh-is-executable.patch

However, it isn't present in the v4.14.11, and also not in the patch that the Gentoo ebuilds of vanilla-sources are using.
Gentoo kernel team cannot support vanilla-sources.
I see the same issue now with vanilla-sources-4.14.12.
Official patch on the Kernel list for the 'linux-next' branch: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/commit/?h=next-20171222&id=9d641b18db295b9ded33df0430940c7df7bb795e Kernel Bugzilla listing: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=198361
And it happens again with vanilla-sources-4.14.13.
The same happens with vanilla-sources-4.14.14: * LD /usr/src_lynx/linux-4.14.14/tools/objtool/objtool-in.o *make[2]: execvp: ./sync-check.sh: Permission denied *make[2]: *** [Makefile:49: /usr/src_lynx/linux-4.14.14/tools/objtool/objtool] Error 127 *make[1]: *** [Makefile:62: objtool] Error 2
Per Kernel.org at https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=198361 4.14.15 has this bug fixed. Please close.
