While building for Power3 (p640), ChangeSet@1.263, 2001-08-15:Arg! I just fixed this, but the problem is this. I took arch/ppc/kernel/l2cr.o out of the always-compiled list, and made it compile only for CONFIG_6xx (which is 6xx/7xx/74xx/82xx) since only 740/750 and 74xx (more or less) can make use of this. The problem is that Power3 and Power4 pretend to be CONFIG_ALL_PPC, so that they can be a chrp machine easily. The best way to fix this, I think would be to make the arch/ppc/kernel/chrp_* files compile without needed pmac_*, so that these machines could just work. Paul, does this sound like a sane plan to you?
I agree, this sounds like a good idea. I suspect there's also room for some of the routines in pmac_* to moved moved into more general files in the cases they are truely pieces of shared code. -- Regards, Tom -------------------------------------------------------------- Linux Guy "My heart is human, my blood is boiling, gall@rochcivictheatre.org my brain IBM" -- Mr Roboto, Styxx ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list.
