Re: devdmatch: Can't read linker file.

While making kldxref(8) crossarch-capable would be the best solution, it's also the most time consuming. The kldxref rc script doesn't do anything if the linker.hints file already exists, so it shouldn't be much of a problem. 2018-03-14 17:39 GMT+00:00 Warner Losh : > I

Re: devdmatch: Can't read linker file.

I wouldn't. It make read-only root a pain in the back side Better to fix kldxref to be a build tool that can cope. And it isn't something that needs to be done on every boot. On Wed, Mar 14, 2018 at 11:05 AM, Edward Napierala wrote: > Hm. Perhaps we should make

Re: devdmatch: Can't read linker file.

Hm. Perhaps we should make kldxref_enable default to YES by default on all platforms, then? The overhead is pretty much none when it has nothing to do - it won't try to recreate the linker.hints if it already exists. 2018-03-14 17:01 GMT+00:00 Steve Wills : > FWIW, I ran

FWIW, I ran into this issue on an i386 image I built from an amd64 host using poudriere and poudriere image. Steve On 03/13/2018 14:44, Warner Losh wrote: Makes sense. I'd forgotten that kldxref can't do cross-platform stuff One could arrange to build it targeting arch X but running on

Makes sense. I'd forgotten that kldxref can't do cross-platform stuff One could arrange to build it targeting arch X but running on the native host and fix things that way. Nobody has care enough to do that, though perhaps this gives us a use case for why one might want to try. Warner On

Re: devdmatch: Can't read linker file.

I think it's only needed for kernels that are cross-built. That's due to kldxref(8) being unable to handle kernels for other architectures. 2018-03-13 13:34 GMT+00:00 Warner Losh : > I wonder why that isn't the default, or why the linker.hints isn't at least > created by the

Re: devdmatch: Can't read linker file.

I wonder why that isn't the default, or why the linker.hints isn't at least created by the make installkernel step... Warner On Tue, Mar 13, 2018 at 2:40 AM, Edward Tomasz Napierała wrote: > FWIW, it seems to be a common problem, see https://reviews.freebsd.org/ > D14534. >

FWIW, it seems to be a common problem, see https://reviews.freebsd.org/D14534. On 0312T1027, Warner Losh wrote: > Well, is there a /boot/kernel/linker.hints? > > Warner > > On Mon, Mar 12, 2018 at 9:56 AM, Daniel Braniss wrote: > > > Hi, > > the above i get on

Well, is there a /boot/kernel/linker.hints? Warner On Mon, Mar 12, 2018 at 9:56 AM, Daniel Braniss wrote: > Hi, > the above i get on arm/nanopi-neo. (it’s the only platform I run current > :-) > > cheers, > danny > > ___
