I've cross compiled the kernel+modules, mostly following the steps in comment #18.
Then, I've scanned the generated module for the AARCH64_ADR_PREL_PG_HI21 relocation. When compiled with Linaro-2015.12, this relocation is present. When compiled with Linaro-2015.10, it is not. When using Linaro-2015.11, the build fails with errors such as: Assembler messages: Error: selected processor does not support `aese v0.16b,v1.16b' Assuming that these relocations are the real cause of the problem, I'm going to bisect to identify which commit in our branch introduced them. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1533009 Title: arm64: "unsupported RELA relocation" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gcc-linaro/+bug/1533009/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
