make CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y
Hya,
I am using Debian lenny (kernel 2.6.26, Debian package). Last night, while building a new kernel, the error Code:
CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y I did not see any related document within kernel source. Web search gave me several sites, however most of them look like for real developer (like contact Linus.) Question is: What is this message? What am I supposed to do next? Happy Penguins. |

Did it stop and wait for your response? As unspawn says, we can't see enough about what's going on, but I get similar pauses when I forget to run "make oldconfig" after downloading a new kernel source. If my *guess* is right, it's just asking you what you want to choose for that configuration item.

Hya,
Thanks for your reply. Yes, as unSpawn points out, I should have piped. Message looked like some sort of conflict among modules at the end of 'make'. (actual one is gone...) It was not waiting for any response. I did 'make CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y' and I did not see any message. I was rebuilding my kernel (uncheck some device drivers) by 'make gconfig', so I don't think I forgot to configure. Anyway, at this moment, I am trying to build a kernel using same .config file under brand new source tree. I do not see the message again. I will update. Happy Penguins! |
Hya,
update. I still have that message. Code:
Kernel: arch/x86/boot/bzImage is ready (#9) Code:
