hi, both the newest updates on gentoo-sources (5.0.6 and 5.0.7) do not compile on my box! i use also the binutils gold linker by default since binutils 2.31.1 via the "default-gold" use-flag. i tested recompiling the kernels with default-gold disabled and it works as expected! should we mask the "default-gold" useflag for gentoo-sources?
I had a similar issues after an upgrade to dev-libs/elfutils-0.176. The kernel compiles again after reverting to elfutils-0.170-r1. (I also have USE=gold)
5.0.X is EOL, but this should be fixed in >= 5.1.7 Have you moved to this series, yet?
binutils-2.32-r1 USE=gold elfutils-0.176-r1 genkernel-3.5.3.3 -> cannot compile the kernel, gentoo-sources 5.1.15 According to external website: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/483434/objdump-file-format-not-recognized the problem is connected to bug 671650 I still can compile the kernel when reverting to elfutils-0.173-r1 With elfutils-0.176, here is the error with genkernel * ERROR: Failed to compile the "bzImage" target... * * -- Grepping log... -- * *objdump: arch/x86/kernel/acpi/cppc_msr.o: impossible d'initialiser le statut de décompression de la section .debug_info *objdump: arch/x86/kernel/acpi/cppc_msr.o: format de fichier non reconnu *objdump: mm/swap_cgroup.o: impossible d'initialiser le statut de décompression de la section .debug_info *objdump: mm/swap_cgroup.o: impossible d'initialiser le statut de décompression de la section .debug_info *objdump: mm/swap_cgroup.o: format de fichier non reconnu * CC mm/memory-failure.o *-- * CC kernel/irq/autoprobe.o *objdump: arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic_noop.o: impossible d'initialiser le statut de décompression de la section .debug_info *objdump: arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic_noop.o: impossible d'initialiser le statut de décompression de la section .debug_info *objdump: arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic_noop.o: format de fichier non reconnu * CC arch/x86/kernel/apic/vector.o *objdump: mm/memory-failure.o: impossible d'initialiser le statut de décompression de la section .debug_info *objdump: mm/memory-failure.o: impossible d'initialiser le statut de décompression de la section .debug_info *objdump: mm/memory-failure.o: format de fichier non reconnu *-- *ld: arch/x86/kernel/head_64.o: impossible d'initialiser le statut de décompression de la section .debug_line *ld: arch/x86/kernel/head_64.o: impossible d'initialiser le statut de décompression de la section .debug_line *ld: arch/x86/kernel/head_64.o: impossible d'initialiser le statut de décompression de la section .debug_line *ld: arch/x86/kernel/head_64.o: impossible d'initialiser le statut de décompression de la section .debug_line *arch/x86/kernel/head_64.o: file not recognized: format de fichier non reconnu *make: *** [Makefile:1029: vmlinux] Error 1
Sorry for the noise. I found the correct place to report my problem is bug 671760.
See bug #671760
