This is getting frustrating.
I am running into a number of 'gcc internal errors' while trying to compile
the kernel (2.2.10) on my sparcstation 2.
The errors all take the form:
gcc: Internal compiler error: program cc1 got fatal signal 11
make[3]: *** [some_file.o] Error 1
The problem is that after a 'make mrproper' and a make config, the errors
don't always occur in the same file. However, once they happen, they
*always* happen at the same point (until the next clean build).
I can "fix" the problem by removing the -02 from the command line to
compile that specific file, but that's a hack and since the file causing
the error isn't always the same, it's not even a very good hack.
Furthermore, 'make config' (and friends) often dies when trying to save the
configuration.
Obviously, something is very broken. Someone suggested this might be
symptoms of faulty memory -- except that the problem consistently occurs in
the same file. Is there any way to rigorously test memory from within
Linux? If not, I'll tell openprom to do a complete memory test (48MB); but
that won't be an option until tomorrow, given my schedule.
If someone can help me track down the problem, I'd...errr...well, be really
happy.
Thanks,
-- Lars
