[LU-779] RHEL6.0 base kernel build new kernel as RPM fails

Mon, 24 Oct 2011 14:37:53 +0000

I followed the instructions on this website: http://wiki.whamcloud.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=8126905
The only difference is that I had to get the source on a windows host and then ftp it to a linux host.

git clone git://git.whamcloud.com/fs/lustre-release.git
cd lustre-release
git checkout --track -b b2_1 origin/b2_1

I tried without the last step as well.

I followed the instructions verbatim. When I got to the "Build the new kernel as an RPM" step, I issued the six make commands listed there, and building the rpm failed, with the following message:

arch/x86/kernel/tboot.c:136:43: error: macro "pte_alloc_map" requires 4 arguments, but only 3 given
arch/x86/kernel/tboot.c: In function 'map_tboot_page':
arch/x86/kernel/tboot.c:136: error: 'pte_alloc_map' undeclared (first use in this function)
arch/x86/kernel/tboot.c:136: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
arch/x86/kernel/tboot.c:136: error: for each function it appears in.)
make[4]: *** [arch/x86/kernel/tboot.o] Error 1
make[3]: *** [arch/x86/kernel] Error 2
make[2]: *** [arch/x86] Error 2
make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

I've attached the complete build output to this report.
