Bug 141960 – gentoo-sources-2.6.17-r4 fails to compile

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: VERIFIED NEEDINFO

[Description David Carlos Manuelda 2006-07-27 19:53:50 UTC]

This is the error (I couldn't tell what option is 'cause I changed config (before it compiled cleanly).

please attach /usr/src/linux/.config

[Comment 2 David Carlos Manuelda 2006-07-27 20:15:25 UTC]

Sorry for reposting: The offending kernel option wich makes it not compiling is (tested, compiles without that option): 


Processor type and features
   Memory model
      Sparse Memory

Kernel .config file

This is my config without this option, it compiles cleanly, but if you reenable Sparse Memory (read my comment) you get the compile errors.

Did you test it? (in amd64?)

config

Can you reproduce with this config? It works fine for me...

[Comment 7 Daniel Drake (RETIRED) 2006-08-18 03:29:00 UTC]

Ignore that, wrong config file. If you could clarify which of the above configs we are supposed to be using it would be useful...

[Comment 8 David Carlos Manuelda 2006-08-18 08:51:53 UTC]

Oh, I'm terribly sorry, those configs are duplicated, I don't know why, but they were send twice. So you can choose whatever of those two.

[Comment 9 Daniel Drake (RETIRED) 2006-08-18 09:04:24 UTC]

The second one (attachment 92889 [details]) compiled fine for me, but sparse memory was not selected. I selected it and it still compiled fine.

[Comment 10 Daniel Drake (RETIRED) 2006-09-02 07:17:53 UTC]

Please reopen when you have attached a config which *definitely* fails.

[Comment 11 David Carlos Manuelda 2006-09-02 07:53:15 UTC]

I will close this thread because the r7 version compiles with sparse memory.
