Kernel 2.5.33 successfully compiled

[Oliver Pitzeier]

Hi volks!

After beeing on holiday and having a lot of work the last few weeks I had time
to try compile 2.5.33 on my AS1000 (Noritake system).

It compiled successfull. I have not yet tried to reboot the machine because it
is used currently...

I will try later and tell you if it works or not...

Thanks a lot to all those alpha developers who made this possible. I guess
Ivan was one of the most involved people. :o)

Best regards!

OK. I was in an error! I didn't saw the error because of a "make -j2"...

I'll try to fix it now...

Hello,

I have had 3 errors so far.

1. add the following line to
/usr/src/linux-2.5.X/linux-2.5.33/sound/core/device.c

#include <asm-generic/errno-base.h>

2. The following file need copied (a quick hack)

cd include/asm
cp ../asm-i386/kmap_types.h .


3. The following error I haven't tried to fix yet.

process.c: In function `alpha_clone':
process.c:268: too few arguments to function `do_fork'
process.c: In function `alpha_vfork':
process.c:277: too few arguments to function `do_fork'
make[1]: *** [process.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory
`/usr/src/linux-2.5.X/linux-2.5.33/arch/alpha/kernel'
make: *** [arch/alpha/kernel] Error 2

Just my 2 cents worth.

I don't have sound on this machine, so I don't get any errors in this module.

I used the same quick-hack, but I was wondering why kmap_types.h is missing...
Any ideas? Anybody?

The same problems happens here. I'm currently searching for the changelog for
do_fork, so I may find out what arguments I should add to make this working
again. At the i386-tree there is sometimes "NULL" as the last argument added,
but I don't believe that it will be good to simply add "NULL" in every
function call. :o)

Also the quick hack with kmap_types.h doesn't seem very nice to me, but I just
tried to compile it fine for the first...

Any suggestions from anyone are very welcome! :o)

Hi,

I must admit that Alpha is a few more out of sync than it deserves.

That's really a bad hack, if i386 kmap types match up with your
expectations, you must be a lucky guy. i386 and alpha are still 100%
different machines.

It wasn't introduced, I guess.

The NULL only needs to be non-NULL if we clone with CLONE_CLEARTID.

No. It seems simply missing. In 2.5.32 it is there. On the right place. :o))))

Then copy it from 2.5.32 rather than from i386.

What about += NULL? I'm not sure, but it may work.

The only thing that makes me sad is the other two zeroes. They simply seem
down and out.

Looks like we need to include <linux/sched.h> prior to that.

I now do have a successful compile, will try to boot it in a sec.... This is from the linuxppc-2.5 tree, will do the same patches on Linus' tree to see if that compiles as well. Ok, it sort of boots as well:

Hi,

Post by Remco Post
Attached patch worked for _compiling_ on my powermac, it might help for you as well....

I'd rather not include sched.h into ptrace.h, for that way lies madness.
You get all the crappy headers when you only include one of them. I'm not
saying the change itself is wrong. It's indeed effective. But it's that
cleanup vs. messup thing.
