<p><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Hello all,</font></p>
<p><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">First message here, I
hope it's the good place to write for this problem.</font></p>
<p><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">I compile kernel.org
vanilla for Debian since 2.4 without big problem, but this time
I'm facing a problem that I don't understund the mistake.</font></p>
<p><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">My goal is to make a
kernel without many drivers I don't need and configuration for
servers with restriction for many thinks. This kernel need to
run en vm guest host (esxi, virtualbox, xen, kvm) and bare metal
host on many different brands.<br>
</font></p>
<p><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Until kernel 4.16.15
everythings works well for all hosts.</font></p>
<p><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Since 4.17 to 4.19 all
attempts to compile and boot give me an error when boot with the
message : 32-bit relocation outside of kernel</font></p>
<p><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">This error is not well
documented, some have error on ram on bare metal host, in my
case I have tested wrong kernel in many virualized guest on two
plateform with same error, I don't think it's a hardware
problem.</font></p>
<p><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">I join configurations,
the first 4.16.15 works very well find here <a

moz-do-not-send="true">https://dl.digdeo.fr/IoLqo/config-4.16.15-work.txt</a>
and for all other version after I have tested upgrade of config
file with make oldconfig and </font><font face="Helvetica,
Arial, sans-serif">localmodconfig but with this all failed,
there is config-4.19.16 for exemple that don't work

<p><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">There is my method to
compile kernels :</font></p>
<p><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">make clean<br>
git checkout v4.19.16<br>
cp ../config-4.16.15-work.txt .config<br>
export CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=`grep -c '^processor' /proc/cpuinfo`<br>
make deb-pkg -j$CONCURRENCY LOCALVERSION=-mykernel
KDEB_PKGVERSION=1<br>
