Thread: [mpls-linux-general] Compile error on IXP425

SourceForge Headquarters 1320 Columbia Street Suite 310 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

Hi,
    I try to compile mpls-linux 1.946a on IXP425 platform,
but I encounter errors as attach file.
Can anyone give some hints ?

Thanks.
Make sure to compile MPLS static into the kernel.  The module work
is not complete yet.

Yes, 
    I compiled with configuration like 

Device Drivers  --->
  Networking support  --->
    Networking options  --->
      <*> Multiprotocol Label Switching
      ...
      <*>   IP: MPLS support
      ...
      <*>   IPv6: MPLS support
      ...
      Network packet filtering (replaces ipchains)  --->
        IP: Netfilter Configuration  --->
          <*> spec_nh target support
        IPv6: Netfilter Configuration  --->
          <*> IP6 tables support (required for filtering/masq/NAT)
            ...
            <*>   spec_nh target support

Did you apply the patch?  If so check for rejects:

find /usr/src/linux -name '*.rej'

Can you include the failures again?

The kernel patch file is from mpls-linux-1.946a.tar.bz2
and I patch it to official Linux 2.6.9 without *.rej
(I also tried SRPM from sf.net, but fail, too)
The attatch is the error log and my config (No IPv6)

BTW
The cross-toolchain is on CentOS v3.1
I'll try to re-compile kernel on FC-3 again.

Thanks for your attention.

For some reason the ARM include files or compiler are not able to find
the 'exit' functions.

You can try a couple of things, try them one at a time on just one of the
functions and see if the error for that functions disappear.

Here is the original code in mpls_ilm.c:

   void __exit mpls_ilm_exit(void)

Try changing it to:

   void mpls_ilm_exit(void)

OR try  adding this to the end of the file:

    EXPORT_SYMBOL(mpls_ilm_exit);

Thanks, it works and I can get zImage for trying.

Could you show me some references about the
"reasons" that ARM include files or compilers can not to 
find __exit functions ?!
