I used the latest version of kgdb (linux-2.6.15.5-kgdb-2.4.tar.bz2) and the
corresponding source code (i.e. linux-2.6.15.5.tar.bz2). During compilation
it gave error in fs/nfs/direct.c as
fs/nfs/direct.c: In function nfs_get_user_pages:
fs/nfs/direct.c:110: warning: implicit declaration of function
nfs_free_user_pages
fs/nfs/direct.c: At top level:
fs/nfs/direct.c:127: warning: conflicting types for nfs_free_user_pages
fs/nfs/direct.c:127: error: static declaration of nfs_free_user_pages
follows
non-static declaration
fs/nfs/direct.c:110: error: previous implicit declaration of
nfs_free_user_pages was here
I simply declared the function in the beginning of the file as
static void nfs_free_user_pages(struct page **, int, int);
The error went off and compilation succeeded, but with the warning:
include/asm/mpspec_def.h:78: warning: \0xe2packed\0xe2 attribute ignored
for field of
type \0xe2unsigned char[6]\0xe2
several times in several files where mpspec_def.h was #include ed.
Finally when I tried to boot it stopped at:
Uncompressing Linux... OK, booting the kernel
and didn't go further.
Can anyone provide a solution to this. Moreover I used kernel-package to
make the image (i.e. make-kpkg kernel_image) and the .deb file thus formed
too was huge (approximately 147 MB)
