The THREAD_SIZE definition is inside a "#ifndef __ASSEMBLY__" block, so it never gets referenced (because "__ASSEMBLY__" is defined for the "vmlinux.lds" build). The obvious suggested fix is to move the definition outside the block. --Bob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
