 |
|
I am trying to compile a new kernel. This is the first time I am compiling a new kernel after the install I'm doing, as I'm configuring ALSA. When I compile, I get this error:
| Code: |

I have searched the forums numerous times, and found that this has occured before. The first piece of advice I found was to recompile binutils with less restrictive CFLAGS. I tried this, but it did not help. Then someone said to recompile gcc with less restrictive CFLAGS, which I also tried and had no luck with. Here is my make.conf:
| Code: |
CFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -O3 -mcpu=i686"
#For compiling gcc and binutils, I used the CFLAGS that is commented out below:
#CFLAGS="-marc=pentium4 -O2"
CHOST="i386-pc-linux-gnu"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
MAKEOPTS="-j2"
USE="alsa X oss gnome gtk qt -kde dvd cdr win32codecs dvdr divx4linux esd gtk gtk2"
VIDEO_CARDS="radeon"
ALSA_CARDS="emu10k1"
|
My version of gcc is 3.3.6.
Anyone have any other ideas?

Please, post your emerge info.

| OK, nevermind. I just solved the problem by removing -march=pentium4 from the CFLAGS and recompiling binutils, and then compiling the kernel. |

I use the following script to compile my kernel (/scripts/compile-kernel.sh):
| Code: | KERNEL_CONFIG="/scripts/myconfig"
genkernel ${1} --kernel-config=${KERNEL_CONFIG} --bootloader=grub --gensplash --gensplash=emergence --udev --no-clean --no-mrproper --install all && \
emerge splashutils && \
splash_geninitramfs -v -g /boot/fbsplash-emergence-1024x768 -r 1024x768 emergence && \
splash_geninitramfs -v -g /boot/fbsplash-emergence-1280x1024 -r 1280x1024 emergence && \
splash_geninitramfs -v -g /boot/fbsplash-emergence-1600x1200 -r 1600x1200 emergence && \
emerge nvidia-kernel nvidia-glx lirc dbus udev hal ivman xfsprogs realtime-lsm kdebase-kioslaves qemu-softmmu kqemu && \

You may not care to hear this anymore, but:
"-mcpu" is deprecated. "-mcpu" does the same thing as "-mtune", which just so happens to be implied by "-march". Therefore, by setting "-march", you're covering all the bases with one, simple, flag. By using "-mcpu=i686", you're not only using a deprecated flag, you're optimizing your system for generic i686 use. The way gcc interprets this is: "compile everything with PentiumPro settings." Therefore, using "-mcpu=i686", "-mtune=i686", or "-march=i686" is innefficient if the binaries compiled by that computer are going to be used solely on that computer. (similar to using a 386 binary on a 686 machine)
Try removing "-mcpu" and sticking with only "-march=pentium4". Using "-march=pentium4" over "-mcpu=i686" should grant a significant increase in compile times--and also the efficiency of the compiled code. But before we get trigger happy, be sure to check /proc/cpuinfo--there's a possibilty you might have a P4 Prescott, in which case, anything compiled with "-march=pentium4" might cause problems. If you do happen to have a prescott core, the equivalent "-march" setting would be, surprisingly: "-march=prescott".
| Code: | | CFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -O3" |
or
| Code: | | CFLAGS="-march=prescott -O3" |
Check out the following for more information:
http://gentoo-wiki.com/Safe_Cflags#Pentium_4_.28Intel.29
http://gentoo-wiki.com/Cflags#-march.3D.3Cyour_arch.3E
http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/i386-and-x86_002d64-Options.html
PS Why is your CHOST setting "i386-pc-linux-gnu" and not "i686-pc-linux-gnu"?
PPS Seeing that you're using a pentium 4, I'm guessing you have quite a lot of ram. If you haven't already, you might want to try using the "-pipe" option in your CFLAGS. See the above links for more info. |
