| |
There is a problem with the latest kernels and the memcpy patch. kernels 2.0.18 were fine, but 2.0.19 and 2.0.20 cannot compile their sound drivers if I also add in the pentium memcpy patch
I get a lot of linking errors like this : sequencer.o(.text+0x243b): undefined reference to `__generic_memcpy_fromfs' sequencer.o(.text+0x24af): undefined reference to `__generic_memcpy_tofs'
I can compile this newer kernels if I disable the pentium memcpy routine - I mean, I let the patch in, but I say "no" in my make xconfig
I think this is only that some headers for the sound driver are different that those of the rest of the kernel.... probably I could track down the error, but I will easyly spend an afternoon on this. So I just hope that Hannu will know what changed before 2.0.19, and it will change that back in a few seconds :) but if this problem persists in the next kernel or if someone asks me to track it down, i'll do it myself :)
