Hi Mulyadi/Spiro,
Can you please help me in partially enabling/disabling
optimizations, because I was consistently hitting at the below problem when
building the kernel after disabling the optimization
ERROR: "intel_gmbus_is_forced_bit" [drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "__udivdi3" [drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915.ko] undefined!
make[2]: *** [__modpost] Error 1
make[1]: *** [modules] Error 2
make: *** [sub-make] Error 2
Can I enable optimization for this i915 driver, so that I can contine with
my kernel building ?
Thanks,
Prabhu
