Tonight I finally realized the cause... Parallel building (i.e. make -jN) is no longer working for me. I traced it back and the last kernel it worked in was -test5. It ceased working in -test6. Not to point fingers, but I do notice that the kbuild separate output directory patch went into -test6... Build environment details: arch: i386 make: GNU Make version 3.79.1 gcc: gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-98) output directory: default (i.e. source dir) I can narrow it down to a -bk if that's useful or if someone has a patch to back out the separate output dir kbuild changes I can give that a whirl... --Adam - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
