I have no problem on SUSE 10.0 (2.16.91.0.2-8) or SLES9 (2.15.90.0.1.1-32.10) which are both far older than a year. Both produce good looking vdso.sos. sles8 (2.12.90.0.15; it was really one of the first production binutils for x86-64) doesn't work out of the box (looks like as-instr doesn't work anymore and it has another assembler issue I'll fix) but with that workarounded it also builds a reasonble looking vdso Sam, can you please take a look at the as-instr issue? It seems to succeed now when it should fail. It would be useful if someone could find out which binutils versions really not work. -Andi - 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/
