Kernel build failing - Githubissues

fcladera commented 4 years ago

I am following the instructions from https://github.com/compulab-yokneam/meta-compulab-bsp/blob/devel-imx8mm-4.14.98/Documentation/linux_kernel_build.md to buld the kernel, and the following error message appears:

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi Fernando,

The root of the problem lies in different default build options of different compilers: some suppose default –fcommon, others (e.g. GCC 10.x) suppose –fno-common. To fix this issue please apply the patch [1]: Issue in the Linux source tree: git cherry-pick e33a814e772cdc36436c8c188d8c42d019fda639 [1] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=e33a814e772cdc36436c8c188d8c42d019fda639&h=linux-4.14.y

After applying the patch, I am facing the following error. Unsure if it is the same related bug:

Issue bc on a command line in order to check that bc calculator utility is installed on the build host and may be called.

Trap for young players... I should have checked it first. Thanks, that fixed it.
