I'm having strange problems with 2.4.0-test2 (and test3-pre1):
- Failures to build working modular kernels with CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y.
Symbol versions are not expanded in the kernels symbol table, i.e.
__generic_copy_from_user_R__ver__generic_copy_from_user
and so on. Symbol versions are expanded in modules, however,
so attempts to load modules fail with symbol mismatches.
(Yes, I _did_ make mrproper and dep.)
- Occasional failures in the dynamic linker when starting
applications. The error message is:
BUG IN DYNAMIC LINKER ld.so: dynamic-link.h: 57: elf_get_dynamic_info: Assertion `! "bad dynamic tag"' failed!
These problems often occur when I'm using 2.4.0-test2 to rebuild itself.
The initial 2.4.0-test2 (built from 2.2.17pre9 or 2.4.0-test1) seems
to work ok.
I don't suspect HW or user-space (RH6.2 + updates + gcc 2.95.2),
since 2.4.0-test1 and 2.2.17pre9 work just fine, as have most
other kernel versions done.
Any ideas?
