I'm using Linaro Android toolchain's arm-eabi- for compiling my Android
Linux kernel with LTO.
The main benefits of my kernel is that it uses LTO(Link-Time-Optimizations).
(Patches found here: https://github.com/andikleen/linux-misc)
But now, it's broken with Linaro Android toolchains from 2014.09~
Building Linux kernel with LTO requires Linker plugin with the toolchain.
But for some reason, linker plugin is disabled with 2014.09 and 2014.10
(Which I used from here :
https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~linaro-android/toolchain-4.9-2014.…https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~linaro-android/toolchain-4.9-2014.…
)
LTO build works flawlessly with 2014.08.
With 2014.09 and 2014.10, I get the following error :
cc1: error: -fno-fat-lto-objects are supported only with linker plugin
If I explicitly remove " -fno-fat-lto-objects " from the Makefile, the
linker fails to link all of the object files.
I would like to ask Linaro to enable back the Linker plugin support :)
Thanks in advance..
Hi.
I'm trying to install on a Pandaboard ES following these instructions:
https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~linaro-android-member-ti/panda-lin…
I've tried the 812 and 815 builds, also tried "--align-boot-part" but
each time there appears to be a bootloader issue, diag light stays
solid green and no output on serial console. I can install the TI
validation image onto the same 8GB sdcard and it boots fine.
Typescript of the install: http://pastebin.com/qqYXbqNT
There are some cylinder warnings which I'm not sure are relevant.
The instructions mention "Using the Prebuilt image. Download the
pandaboard.img.bz2 and flash it.". I assume as an alternative to the
above but I couldn't see where this image is available for download?
thanks!
Hello,
It turns that my disk usage analysis earlier this year was too
optimistic, and with Project Ara and other builds added, we ran out of
space much quicker than in a year. Even clean up of the older jobs
didn't help, so I'd like to proceed with disk space upgrade (say, to
800Gb from current 500Gb).
I'd like to schedule this for weekend, when, I hope, all release builds
will be done. Let me know if there're any concerns.
Thanks,
Paul

Hello Guys,
I'm using branch linux-linaro-lsk-android on lsk(https://git.linaro.org/kernel/linux-linaro-stable.git). My arch is armv8.
When I config CONFIG_PREEMPT, The system panic.
It says "Failed to execute /init". I digged into it and found there was a page fault in atomic path.
And When config CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY or CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE, it looks well.
Does anyone encounter this situation?

Hello
I've been running the vexpress images in qemu in preparation for some
work on Android's ADF. I've been using the vexpress-lsk-3.14 images.
They work OK but seem to be based on the 3.10 kernel.
I started out using the 14.09 release versions but the problem also
seems to be apparent in the overnight builds:
http://snapshots.linaro.org/android/~linaro-android/vexpress-lsk-3.14/70/ke…
Is this a known issue?
Daniel.
