Description Dennis Schridde 2013-02-04 17:45:58 UTC
When building a hardened kernel on ia64, I get following error:
  File "/usr/src/linux-3.2.35-hardened-r1/arch/ia64/scripts/unwcheck.py", line 18
    print "Usage: %s FILE" % sys.argv[0]
                         ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I assume the script needs to specify the version of python it uses or be upgraded to Python 2.7+ syntax.

The error also exists in 3.2.35-r1.

# python --version
Python 3.2.3

Still an issue Dennis?

Yes:
  MODPOST 339 modules
  File "/usr/src/linux-3.2.46-hardened-r1/arch/ia64/scripts/unwcheck.py", line 18
    print "Usage: %s FILE" % sys.argv[0]
                         ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
make[2]: [unwcheck] Error 1 (ignored)

The upstream bug is being ignored: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=48321
Comment 3 Anthony Basile gentoo-dev 2013-09-27 11:04:35 UTC
Dennis, the only way upstream will act on this is if you send your patch to the lkml.  They pretty much ignore their bugzilla.  (Been there done that.)
Comment 4 Anthony Basile gentoo-dev 2014-12-23 15:15:11 UTC
No action upstream.
