Keith, I've observed same problem on our platforms. I'm using compiled kernel 3.14.11 on top of CentOS 6.5.
After modifying the value from 100 to 400 in Makefile for max-inline-insns-single parameter, I am able to compile DPDK 1.7.0 successfully. --anbu- -----Original Message----- From: dev [mailto:dev-boun...@dpdk.org] On Behalf Of Wiles, Roger Keith Sent: Monday, July 07, 2014 8:24 AM To: De Lara Guarch, Pablo Cc: <dev at dpdk.org> Subject: Re: [dpdk-dev] Build failure on Ubuntu 14.04 BTW, he changed the value from 100 to 400 and that fixed his compile problem on CentOS.

Also the compiler is older on CentOS gcc 4.4.7 and has a problem with the: "--param max-inline-insns-single=100" issue in librte_eal/linuxapp/igb_uio/Makefile Giving the error: "error: inlining failed in call to 'kzalloc.clone.0': --param max-inline-insns-single limit reached" when compiling igb_uio.o He suggested increasing the value to 1000, but he got that suggestion from stack overflow site. I do not use CentOS and can not verify the issues or fix.

Looks like some other type of ifdef change needs to be done to the kcompat.h file to allow it to compile on Ubuntu 14.04 with kernel 3.13.0-30.

System: Ubuntu14.04 Kernel: 3.13.0-24 X86_64 Compiler: GCC 4.8.2 x86_64 Can you let me know which kernel version you use? Apparently, it is this one: 3.13.0-30-generic, from uname -a Thanks Waterman
