[coLinux-devel] Modules broken?

[Jaroslaw K. <ja...@zd...>]

Hi Dan,

I just downloaded today's snapshot and (as I reported on IRC) "depmod -ae"
failed for me on Fedora Core 1 image. I got errors about some missing
symbols.

I attempted to rebuild kernel + modules myself:

1. I got FRESH kernel-2.4.26.tar.bz2 - extracted and applied patch
There wass some error saying that one of the chunks is already applied
(strange, but doesn't look harmful - it's just a printk(), so I ignored it)

2. I copied today's config file to .config

3. make oldconfig && make dep && make vmlinux && make modules && make
modules_install

After this I copied the kernel and modules into appropriate places and IT
WORKED.

This suggests that there's a mismatch between today's kernel and modules.
Can you confirm/fix this?

BTW. With coLinux-20040415.exe it was ok.

My release script was the fault. 

I have updated the snapshot with one addition:

  * The daemon process is pinned to the first processor until
    we get the SMP stability issue fixed.	 

With this change it runs without any problem on my HT machine (Linux as 
host, though).

I will try it out on a dual Xeon XP Pro box with HT (looks like 4 procs) and
let you know how it works.

That's what I'm running :-)  Two actually, one w/ XP Pro and one with
Server2k3.
