Hi,
Well, while doing my duty as a good user by using the latest kernel patches and looking for problems, I ran accross a case where the kernel would not compile if you selected that you had a PPro/686 and have no SMP support selected (it works fine if you select SMP support or change the CPU to a pentium) you get the following message:
[root@firestar linux]# make zImage gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -fno-strength-reduce -m486 -malign-loops=2 -malign-jumps=2 -malign-functions=2 -DCPU=686 -c -o init/main.o init/main.c /usr/src/linux/include/asm/bugs.h: In function `check_config': In file included from init/main.c:27: /usr/src/linux/include/asm/bugs.h:354: `smp_found_config' undeclared (first use this function) /usr/src/linux/include/asm/bugs.h:354: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once /usr/src/linux/include/asm/bugs.h:354: for each function it appears in.) make: *** [init/main.o] Error 1
It happens in bugs.h just after it sees that CONFIG_GOOD_APIC is defined and then includes some smp stuff that didn't get declared. It looks like an easy fix, but since I don't know what a good APIC is I don't know if the bug is either in that part of the code or wherever CONFIG_GOOD_APIC gets defined I decided not to fix it myself.
Hope this helps. :)
Later, Ryan
