In my system those identifiers are defined in /usr/include/asm-generic/errno-base.h, which is included in the linux-kernel-headers package. Please check if that file exists, and defines both values. -- Felipe Sateler -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Help - 'make' errors dealing with Kernel Source - all my kernel source code, old and new
Data: working kernel: Linux version 2.6.16.14.amd64-ws1.1 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 4.0.3 (Ubuntu 4.0.3-1ubuntu5)) #1 Thu Jun 1 23:55:33 PDT 2006 (self compiled and works) new kernel: linux-2.6.17.1 errors both occur with both linux-2.6.16.14 and linux-2.6.17.1 So I am gathering it is not with the source but with make. From an earlier post on Ubuntu list Ok.. I was able to compile my kernel.. but now I don't know if I had installed or messed up my kconfig up any.. but every time I try to run: I downloaded the newest vanilla kernel but I just can't compile the code or even get the simple make xconfig to work. Now I cd into my old kernel directory and did a make vmlinux and it started the normal make process but as to any of the normal make xconfig, make gconfig, make menuconfig, make oldconfig all give me the same errors and I am so at a loss. # make oldconfig # make xconfig # make gconfig # make menuconfig all give me this error: HOSTCC scripts/kconfig/mconf.o scripts/kconfig/mconf.c: In function 'exec_conf': scripts/kconfig/mconf.c:488: error: 'EINTR' undeclared (first use in this function) scripts/kconfig/mconf.c:488: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once scripts/kconfig/mconf.c:488: error: for each function it appears in.) scripts/kconfig/mconf.c:488: error: 'EAGAIN' undeclared (first use in this function) make[1]: *** [scripts/kconfig/mconf.o] Error 1 make: *** [xconfig] Error 2 Is this related to missing file or a conflict? Or just simply something else... new I am using a AMD64 3200+ self built system (my very first personally built computer) and Installed Ubuntu pre-release Dapper Candidate and installed Dapper on my box. Two weeks later Dapper was officially released but before that I had compiled a custom and working kernel from kernel.org and it worked just great. Since then I have updated my system with the official Dapper and things have been working just fine. Now Since the newest kernel was released and wanted to add some new things in the code I downloaded 2.6.17.1 source and do as normal move my .config over and do a make oldconfig. However something has changed on the computer which I have not seen before. Now I have been compiling kernel code for the last 7years and have been using my own built kernels quite nicely. Apparently I have installed something that may conflicted or a package that was updated made a change that is keeping me from compiling the kernel. I only come to the list when after spending hrs/days/weeks trying to figure out the problem on my own and have exhausted ALL my resources and seek other peoples help. When I post a message to the list it is not because I am two lazy to find the answer on my own but to help me with an issue that I just can't find an answer and maybe someone else with more programing experience can help. This being my 3rd post which I have noticed that my last 3-4 posts ranging a couple of weeks have not been answered. I am glad for all the help I have been given in my years of experience and so look forward to the times in which I do help others. It is an awesome feeling to give back to the community. I am not a programmer and since I was in elementary school I have self taught with help of others, books and such all I know about computers. I am a strong advocate in Open Source and help with others to move to Open Source or with their computer / tech issues. Again I thank all. Sorry for all the extra wording but I am wondering if the reason I am not getting any response is because I did not have enough info on this issue. -Adam info source: http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/Kernel/2005-06/6008.html http://sourceware.org/ml/crossgcc/2005-09/msg00034.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Make Errors During Kernel Build
I successfully built a 2.4.2 kernel on an old Pentium but forgot a few things, so I am need to rebuild. First, I deleted the /usr/src/linux-2.4.2/ subdirectories and uncompressed and untarred linux-2.4.2.tar.bz2 into /usr/src/linux-2.4.2/ I then ran: make clean make menuconfig make-kpkg kernel_image Things seem to be going fine until the end of the build, when I get: (Please excuse any typos, e.g., I can't get the ' to swing the other way ;) ) bbootsect.s: Assembler messages bbootsect.s:253: Warning: indirect lcall without '*' ld -m elf_i386 -Ttext 0x0 -s -oformat binary bbootsect.o -o bbootsect ld: cannot open binary: No such file or directory make [2]: *** [bbootsect] Error 1 make [2]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-2.4.2/linux/arch/i386/boot' make [1]: *** [bzImage] Error 2 make [1]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-2.4.2/linux' make: *** [stamp-build] Error 2 Of course, there is no .deb created.

make errors in testing
I am trying to compile busybox 0.49 on my Debian box. I'm running testing and this is the first problem i've had. I had the same error with 0.48. I am a relatively untrained wannabe programmer so I have no Idea if this is gcc , make or my downloads. heres the error: gcc -Wall -Os -fomit-frame-pointer -D_GNU_SOURCE -I- -I. -I. -DBB_VER='0.49' -DBB_BT='2001.03.15-17:14+' -c sync.c -o sync.o sync.c: In function `sync_main': sync.c:32: void value not ignored as it ought to be sync.c:33: warning: control reaches end of non-void function make: *** [sync.o] Error 1

[EMAIL PROTECTED] (joost witteveen) writes: (snip) You just don't have the command makeinfo installed. It's in the texinfo package. Installl texinfo, and you should be OK. Or, emacs can do the job, if you have it. (And what are you making? I've always run into this building emacs-related packages, so I'm guessing you have it, but perhaps it shows up far afield.) The makefile you're using should have an entry like MAKEINFO = makeinfo and perhaps also EMACS = emacs which you could add, if not. Change the first to MAKEINFO = $(EMACS) -batch -q -f batch-texinfo-format and it will run emacs in batch (non-interactive) mode to do the job. Does that fit? -- Ed Donovan [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Make errors
Just a user problem I'm sure but when I go to use the make command I get: make: makeinfo: Command not found make: Error 127 What am I doing wrong? Nothing to do with make, or gcc, I'm afraid. You just don't have the command makeinfo installed. It's in the texinfo package. Installl texinfo, and you should be OK. -- joost witteveen [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Use Debian/GNU Linux!

Just a user problem I'm sure but when I go to use the make command I get: make: makeinfo: Command not found make: Error 127 What am I doing wrong? Using gcc-2.7.2 and make-3.74. Thanks James Crawford [EMAIL PROTECTED]
