Subject: [PATCH] fix-gcc-4.3-false-modulo-optimization.patch
|
|
|
|
I tried to compile the current stable kernel
|
|
(a2ef813d2f439a3e9f377d33a2e5baad098afb7e)
|
|
and get the following errors:
|
|
|
|
kernel/built-in.o: In function `timespec_add_ns':
|
|
/mnt/data/Freerunner/Gentoo/rootinstall/usr/src/linux/include/linux/time.h:174:
|
|

|

|

|
|
/mnt/data/Freerunner/Gentoo/rootinstall/usr/src/linux/include/linux/time.h:179:
|
|
undefined reference to `__aeabi_uldivmod'
|
|
|
|
applying the following patch solved the problem:
|
|
--------
|
|
Prevent gcc-4.3 form "optimizing" the while loop into a costly modulo operation.
|
|
