Error with make in /volatility/tools/linux

[shagunjain123]

I am trying to create module.dwarf in~/volatility/tools/linux so that I can create a linux profile but getting below error:

make -C //lib/modules/5.11.0-36-generic/build CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y M="/home/shagunjain/volatility/tools/linux" modules make[1]: Entering directory '/usr/src/linux-headers-5.11.0-36-generic'

ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid. include/generated/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are missing. Run 'make oldconfig && make prepare' on kernel src to fix it.

make[1]: [Makefile:745: include/config/auto.conf] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-headers-5.11.0-36-generic' make: [Makefile:10: dwarf] Error 2

Please help in resolving this error.

You need to have the sources installed on your system. Depending on the distro, you may be able to just do yum install kernel-devel and get what you need.

This does not help.

Getting the same error as @shagunjain123's second post on Ubuntu 20.04.2 with gcc 9.3.0. Runs just fine on Ubuntu 18.04 with gcc 7.5.0, but that's not the kernel I'm trying to profile.

Adding MODULE_LICENSE("GPL"); as the last line in "module.c" worked for me.

I have the same problem:

make -C //lib/modules/5.15.0-60-generic/build CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y M="" modules make[1]: Entering directory '/usr/src/linux-headers-5.15.0-60-generic' SYNC include/config/auto.conf.cmd YACC scripts/kconfig/parser.tab.[ch] /bin/sh: 1: bison: not found make[3]: [scripts/Makefile.host:17: scripts/kconfig/parser.tab.h] Error 127 make[2]: [Makefile:622: syncconfig] Error 2 make[1]: [Makefile:742: include/config/auto.conf.cmd] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-headers-5.15.0-60-generic' make: [Makefile:10: dwarf] Error 2

Can you help me, please?

I tried to test adding "MODULE_LICENSE("GPL");" in the last line, but, I still have the same problem.

Hello @JessyGothik ,

It seems that you don't have bison installed on your OS.

Try to run the following command: sudo apt-get install bison

It will download bison on your sistem and your problem will end. It does not mean that you can have more problems in the future but try to execute the command and see if that works for you.
