According: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/61151 Bug is in binutils, patch have been applied on git but there is no binutils-2.31.2 (as fare I can see). My proposal is to have SVN to back track to elfutils-0.173 waiting for binutils next official release. comments?On the system where I most recently built LFS (but back in late November) I have elfutils-0.175 and binutils-2.31.1 I successfully built, and booted, both the 4.19.3 amd 4.20.0 kernels on that machine (as well as a 4.20-rc), using - as normal - the original kernel headers which were 4.19.3. Too busy to try 5.0-rc1. Looking at my scripts, for elfutils I currently ensure that my CFLAGS include '-g' (yeughh - my main purpose with CFLAGS is to strip debug info to save space since I'm rubbish as using gdb ;) and I assume that the book builds without specifying CFLAGS. Maybe that is related, maybe it is a lingering result of some previous problem. On all my previous systems, including 8.3, I have not seen any reason to update elfutils or binutils, so only that one system uses 0.175. I don't have any objection to reverting to an older version of a package (currently using an older psutils), but at the moment I don't think one "doesn't build for me" (when it presumably did build for whoever updated those packages) is a persuasive reason.I cannot duplicate the problem. tar -xf linux-4.19.12.tar.xz cd linux-4.19.12 cp /boot/config-4.18.5 .config make oldconfig make make modules_install worked without problem. # CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO is not set Changing that to =y and running make caused the system to ask about couple of other DEBUG options (I took the defaults), but otherwise there were no reported problems. -- Bruce
I agree
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO
is the critical parameter for kernel problem
Tomorrow I shall full redo chapter 6 again with 0.175.
and double check....
What "worry" me is not the kernel compilation problem as such,
but rather an indication about objdump malfunction....
objdump is a binutil tool... (should be working).
