Hi Ralf, Kernel-CI is complaining about this build error: https://kernelci.org/build/id/5893cc9d59b5145e1b3daa9a/logs/ and I also get mails from kbuild test robot about this problem. Can we get this patch in the mips tree somehow or revert the patch that activated VPE support in the defconfig, see https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/14628/ Hauke On 12/27/2016 04:31 PM, Hauke Mehrtens wrote:

physical_memsize is needed by the vpe loader code and the platform specific code has to define it. This value will be given to the firmware loaded with the VPE loader. I am not aware of any standard interface or better value to provide here.
