Bug 424996 – sys-kernel/hardened-sources-3.4.4-r1 compilation fails on process_64

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

Upon trying to update my hardened-sources, I found this compilation failure:

It is not clear whether this is a kernel bug itself, or an issue with my configuration, or something gentoo added. Or a combination of all three.

I do note there is a CONFIG_TASK_SIZE_MAX_SHIFT directive that searching through menuconfig acknowledges as true, but there's no documentation on it and I have never had to set it before. So it looks like an include was borked at some point, but that's just my guess at this juncture.

This is a repeatable issue for me with this specific build. It looks like I'll stick with 3.1.8 for awhile more.

My emerge --info is as follows:

My kernel config couldn't be pasted into the bug so it is attached as a text file from my windows workstation.
