Dear experts,
First I don't know if I am posting in the right mailing list, if not,
please apologize and let me know.
Here is my problem:
I am running a mandriva cluster ( Mandriva 2010.0 kernel 2.6.31.12), with a
bunch of mellanox cards. I struggled during one week but finally I was able
to install OFED 1.5.1 on my running kernel 2.6.31.12 (linux kernel provided
by the mandriva distribution) and now it works very well and fast !
Recently I upgraded a part of my cluster with the latest stable kernel
2.6.32.27 downloaded from http://www.kernel.org.
So far, I am not able to build the ofa_kernel from OFED 1.5.1 package for
the kernel 2.6.32.27.
When I tried to rebuild the RPM, it stops with the following message :
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
rpm -ivh ofa_kernel-1.5.1-OFED.1.5.1..src.rpm
cd rpmbuild/SPECS
rpmbuild -vv -bb ofa_kernel.spec --define 'configure_options --with-core-mod
--with-user_mad-mod --with-user_access-mod --with-addr_trans-mod

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts' --define '_prefix /usr' --define
'__arch_install_post %{nil}'
....

According to the output, there are some unresolved symbols which I don't
understand.... It looks like I get this unresolved symbols, **only** if I am
using a linux kernel that I manually compiled. If I used a kernel provided
by my distribution, these unresolved symbols vanished....
What I am doing wrong ? Is there specifics options to set when we compile
the linux kernel from sources ?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Jean-Charles.
Hi Jean-Charles,
First, this is the right mailing list.
Please send me the full compilation log.
Regards,
Vladimir
