Hello,
I have used SVN t2-trunk version for a while already, but today it
broke
when I updated latest changes from svn repo.
After the update every build failed in "base/linux-header" stage-0
step.
After digging in more it turn out that compilation environment tried
to call
Linux Kernel makefiles with "make ARCH=x86 CROSSCOMPILE= KCC=kcc
oldconfig"
parameters.
Well, as we know Linux 2.6.x doesn't have arch/x86/ directory but
instead
arch/i386/. The error turn out to be in "base/linux24/linux-conf.in"
file.
The latest SVN changelog (r27693 by aldas) gives a hint about the
change but
looks like it breaks the x86 (32bit) compilation.
This was changed in 2.6.24. i386 and x86_64 where unified to just x86
with
a Config option whether to build 32 or 64 bit.
However, this changes apparently broken the slightly older linux-header
package which still has i386 and x86_64.
The lastest T2 svn package/base/linux24/linux-conf.in file has
following
line 20:
lx_cpu=echo $arch | arch2uname | sed s/.... ppc and mips and bfin
stuff
here... -e s/i386/x86
The last "-e s/i386/x86" part is new addition and it wrongly changes
arch
kernel compilation parameter from i386 to x86 value.
I removed this i386->x86 sed conversion part from linux-conf.in file
and I
was once again able to compile something.
Is this "workaround fix" valid or have I missed something? Or maybe
the
latest SVN change was meant to deal with only x86_64 arch but it
accidentally changes the 32-bit x86 Kernel arch parameter?
This needs to be addressed, maybe by simply updating the older linux-
header,
or changing this line to use different substitutes depending on the
version
to build.
Yours,
