I really wish this would be fixed... -tduffy

I found out that the default sparc config had enabled some qlogic scsi driver which doesn't compile. Removing that one from the config solved my problem too. But where is the bootable kernel located after compilation with "make boot"? All I have is a vmlinux in /usr/src/linux (this is the first time I compile a kernel on a sparc) Thanks, Ben ***DISCLAIMER*** Deze e-mail is uitsluitend bestemd voor de geadresseerde(n).

It also turned out that I needed to enable PCI support, despite the fact that the Ultra1 is an SBus machine. But all seems to be well now.

RE: kernel 2.4.x compile failure on Ultra 1
I think a came across this problem as well. Try compiling the kernel with SMP, i think the atomic_dec_and_lock only gets exported when SMP is being used. Unfortunately I run accross more problems later on when trying to compile 2.4.9, hopefully you have more luck. Good luck, Ben > -Original Message- > From: Noah L.

kernel 2.4.x compile failure on Ultra 1
Hi folks. I'm having a problem compiling Linux 2.4.8 and .9 on my Ultra1 running sid. I've tried the debianized kernel-source packages, as well as the source from kernel.org, with the same results. The compiler error, which occurs pretty late in the build process, is this: sparc64-linux-gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.9/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -m64 -pipe -mno-fpu -mcpu=ultrasparc -mcmodel=medlow -ffixed-g4 -fcall-used-g5 -fcall-used-g7 -Wno-sign-compare -Wa,--undeclared-regs-DEXPORT_SYMTAB -c sparc64_ksyms.csparc64_ksyms.c:166: `atomic_dec_and_lock' undeclared here (not in a function) sparc64_ksyms.c:166: initializer element is not constant sparc64_ksyms.c:166: (near initialization for `__ksymtab_atomic_dec_and_lock.value') make[2]: *** [sparc64_ksyms.o] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.9/arch/sparc64/kernel' make[1]: *** [_dir_arch/sparc64/kernel] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.9' make: *** [stamp-build] Error 2 sparc64-linux-gcc --version gives: 3.0.2. Am I using the wrong compiler? This doesn't seem like a compiler incompatibility, but maybe...
