The build failure is interesting.
Relocation offset doesn't fit in 32 bits make[3]: *** [arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux.relocs] Error 1 make[3]: *** Deleting file 'arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux.relocs' make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make[2]: *** [arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux] Error 2 make[1]: *** [bzImage] Error 2 make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make: *** [sub-make] Error 2
Unfortunately it doesn't tell me _which_ relocation doesn't fit.
I may have to revert to an older compiler. Wouldn't be the first time. Let me try...
Confirmed. This builds fine with gcc-6.5.0 and binutils 2.26.1. Sigh :-(.
That's really really odd :(
Let me try this, I only normally build allmodconfig.
Don't bother. I reverted to gcc 6.3.0, where it builds fine.
Matching compiler versions to kernel releases is always challenging. This isn't the only case where I can not use the latest version of gcc.
