With the relatively recent commit http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/meta/recipes-support/db?id=f4e8e9242c5df095b52688b083df3c9d36e7144b some nios2 builds (uboot, core-image-minimal, etc) were broken due to db trying to use ARM instructions in mutexes. The reason was db "configure" used the cached entry from nios2-linux (which was incorrect). So the remedy was to remove the incorrect cached entry and let db "configure" figure out which is the proper mutex to use. Besides, I don't even know if nios2/gcc-assembly exists. Also, none of other Linux info files provides this entry (db_cv_mutex). -- _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list Openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
