Hello Jack,
I didn't make any changes as part of make menuconfig. I thought all the
FCoE related code would be enabled.
Following is the error I got when I executed make.
[r...@rhel linux-2.6.29]# make
scripts/kconfig/conf -s arch/x86/Kconfig
CHK include/linux/version.h
UPD include/linux/version.h
CHK include/linux/utsrelease.h
UPD include/linux/utsrelease.h
SYMLINK include/asm -> include/asm-x86
CC kernel/bounds.s
