Hello All

Having trouble building the gentoo-sources-2.6.31-r6 kernel this morning. I had to `make` w/CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y to see the problem and this is what I got:

Code:
  LD      vmlinux.o
  MODPOST vmlinux.o
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x7196): Section mismatch in reference from the function setup_trampoline() to the variable .cpuinit.data:trampoline_end
The function setup_trampoline() references
the variable __cpuinitdata trampoline_end.
This is often because setup_trampoline lacks a __cpuinitdata
annotation or the annotation of trampoline_end is wrong.

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x719b): Section mismatch in reference from the function setup_trampoline() to the variable .cpuinit.data:trampoline_data
The function setup_trampoline() references
the variable __cpuinitdata trampoline_data.
This is often because setup_trampoline lacks a __cpuinitdata
annotation or the annotation of trampoline_data is wrong.

This is often because setup_trampoline lacks a __cpuinitdata

drivers/built-in.o: In function `con_init':

make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1


Reading the post here, makes it sound like it's a warning, but it sure appears to be bad error and is failing. Not sure what I need to do to get past this.

Searching the config, I see X86_TRAMPOLINE there

Code:
¦ Symbol: X86_TRAMPOLINE [=y]


I was unable to find that after `make menuconfig` though, and wanted to see if setting that to 'n' is a bad idea.

Here is my emerge --info output

howdy mate

the first errors you can indeed ignore

The relevant bit is this:

Code:

drivers/built-in.o: In function `con_init':
vt.c:(.init.text+0xfb4): undefined reference to `.L1436'


Which lead me to

http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/7/1/293

and more informative

http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/56204/
Issue 2


What do you have selected under:

Code:

-> General setup
  │       -> RCU Subsystem
  │         -> RCU Implementation (<choice> [=y])


Try changing this from "tree" to "preempt" if that's not how you have things currently, and see if that sorts it. Far as I can tell it's a kernel bug (upstream), but maybe this will get you around it. I run with preempt without issue.

Hello There!

Thanks for the reply.

I have the following:
Code:
(X) Classic RCU
( ) Tree-based hierarchical RCU


No preempt option?

Thanks!

this is fine

twas making a somewhat wild guess - weird though, on 2.6.31-r6 gentoo sources I have that

that was my only idea for getting around this, someone else will have to pick this up

EDIT: ah right, imagine it has something to do with me having this enabled:

Code:

Symbol: PREEMPT [=y]
  │ Prompt: Preemptible Kernel (Low-Latency Desktop)
  │   Defined at kernel/Kconfig.preempt:36
  │   Depends on: <choice>
  │   Location:
  │     -> Processor type and features
  │       -> Preemption Model (<choice> [=y])


I guess the other shot in the dark - switching over to another revision of GCC (one from the 4.x family if you have it on there) and seeing if you hit the same thing? It's just rubbing me like it may be a GCC issue based upon the error, can't put my finger on it.

Today when building a 2.6.31-r10 kernel I stumbled over pretty much the same problem (undefined reference in con_init).

Changing the RCU configuration to "classic" did not help. Switching the GCC version from 3.4.6 to 4.3.4 made the problem go away.

Hi People

Just joined the forum so I could share some info.
Building linux-2.6.33.2 with GCC 3.4.3 I also stumbled across the error

drivers/built-in.o(.init.text+0x3406): In function `con_init': vt.c: undefined reference to `.L1500'

after a quick search I found my way here.

It took a little over an hour to find the problem. grepping the sources
for .L1500 was fruitless. Building vt.c with -E provided no further clues, so
I compiled the vt.c file to assembler with the -S switch and found that the
code make a reference to a label .L1500 that does not exist. Suspecting a
GCC bug I recompiled vt.o WITHOUT -0s (Optimize for size) and was able
to successfully link the kernel.

( I'm not using Gentoo but an old LFS build, and replacing the compiler
seems like overkill )

Good Luck
