 Posted: Tue Oct 16, 2007 3:47 am Post subject: Klibc problems leading to genkernel problems |
 |
|
I was trying to update my system the other day, and I ran into an odd problem... Klibc failed to update from 1.2.1-r2 to 1.5, on a missing #include <asm-generic/signal.h>. Low and behold, there is no /usr/src/linux/include/asm-generic/signal.h in my kernel sources. I haven't upgraded my kernel in a while (2.6.11-gentoo-r5) and I WAS able to find the file in a more recent kernel source directory (2.6.22-gentoo-r8).
Perhaps klibc-1.5 requires a newer kernel, and the ebuild does a poor job of checking this dependency... no biggie, I probably need to update my kernel anyway. Since my kernel is so old, I figured that my old .config file is probably way to outdated to be reused. Since I don't have a lot of time to mess with it, I figured I could live with the bloat of a full "genkernel all" kernel.
Now genkernel is failing while trying to create the bzImage. Besides a bunch of strange warnings, it appears to be failing on a "Error: suffix or operands invalid for `mov' ".
Here's the relevant part of the genkernel log:

Says to me that you've forgotten to update your /usr/src/linux symlink to your newer kernel sources, since genkernel is obviously trying to build a 2.6.11 kernel, not a 2.6.22 one. You could try using "eselect kernel list" and "eselect kernel set" to change the symlink, or do it manually. I don't have experience with genkernel, but I assume it uses that symlink. Plus, it would need to be updated for ebuilds (such as klibc, for example) to see the new configuration and headers. They pretty much uniformly use "/usr/src/linux" to access the current kernel.
You could also do a "make oldconfig" after copying your .config between directories as an alternative to genkernel, but, as you mentioned, it could take a while to look through all the new config entries.
Oh, and by the way, go Hokies! |

Well, that was dumb... I'll update the symlink and try again. I guess I assumed that if I ran genkernel from the 2.6.22 directory, it would build that kernel.
