for the first time in a while, i'm compiling the current git pull of the kernel source on my ubuntu system and, for a number of modules, i'm getting: Building modules, stage 2. MODPOST 1943 modules FATAL: arch/x86/kvm/kvm-amd: sizeof(struct x86cpu_device_id)=12 is not a modulo of the size of section __mod_x86cpu_device_table=32. Fix definition of struct x86cpu_device_id in mod_devicetable.h make[2]: *** [__modpost] Error 1 make[1]: *** [modules] Error 2 make: *** [sub-make] Error 2 i already deselected a couple of crypto modules that produced that but it's clear there are a number of modules that are going to cause this grief. i've never seen this before and i'm about to dig into it, but anyone else tripped over this and know the workaround? this is on a 64-bit ubuntu system, with: $ gcc --version gcc (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5) 4.6.3 ... it looks like something related to packed structures but that's just a guess right now. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
