Description Darren Hart 2012-08-03 22:55:59 UTC

Compiling a linux-yocto-custom.bbappend with the defconfig from the stock linux-yocto for qemux86 results in the following:

ERROR: QA Issue: Architecture did not match (3 to 62) on /work/qemux86-poky-linux/linux-yocto-custom-3.4+git1+76e10d158efb6d4516018846f60c2ab5501900bc-r1/packages-split/kernel-dev/usr/src/kernel/arch/x86/tools/relocs

ERROR: Task 158 (/home/dvhart/source/poky/meta-skeleton/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto-custom.bb, do_package) failed with exit code '1'

This does not occur with linux-yocto, just linux-yocto-custom.

This file is indeed x86_64:
/work/qemux86-poky-linux/linux-yocto-custom-3.4+git1+76e10d158efb6d4516018846f60c2ab5501900bc-r1/packages-split/kernel-dev/usr/src/kernel/arch/x86/tools/relocs

but does not exist in linux-yocto, there are no binaries in the tools dir.

Comment 1 Darren Hart 2012-08-03 23:21:20 UTC

It's a bug in the Linux kernel "make clean".

https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/27/221

I'll investigate the best way to address on Monday morning.

Comment 2 Darren Hart 2012-09-25 22:29:06 UTC

This appears to simply be a matter of choosing sources for linux-yocto-custom that do not contain this particular bug. As linux-yocto-custom is not meant to be built as is without modification, I'm closing this as NOTABUG.
