Hi,
[ http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11143 has it all]
targeting ppc(32), e.g. 405 (!fp), previously i got:
CC drivers/char/hw_random/rng-core.mod.o
LD [M] drivers/char/hw_random/rng-core.ko
/there/src/buildroot.git.ppc/build_powerpc_nofpu/staging_dir/usr/
bin/powerpc-linux-uclibc-ld:
arch/powerpc/lib/crtsavres.o: No such file: No such file or directory
* Makefile (LDFLAGS_MODULE_PREREQ): New variable to hold
prerequisite
files for modules.
* arch/powerpc/Makefile: add crtsavres.o to LDFLAGS_MODULE_PREREQ.
* scripts/Makefile.modpost (cmd_as_o_S): Copy from Makefile.build.
(cmd_ld_ko_o): Also link LDFLAGS_MODULE_PREREQ.
Provide rule to build objects from assembler.
The attached patch (same as attached to abovementioned bug) fixes
this.
I'm asking the ppc maintainers or you, Sam, to consider something to
that effect for inclusing in the stable series.
thanks,
This patch solves the problem for me. Without it building modules
before the kernel proper fails to find crtsavres.o when linking.
Ben, Paul or Sam, could you please look at this and make comment
if it is the right approach?
I also agree that this should be back ported to the stable series
(Note: for some reason this patch did *not* show up in patchwork).
because it was sent as an attachment.
