Athlon XP 1600+ and _mmx_memcpy symbol in modules
PATCH 1/1 Athlon XP 1600+ and _mmx_memcpy symbol in modules
Hi,
I've just upraded from my old PII-400 system to an Athlon XP 1600+
based system so changed from "Pentium-Pro/Celeron/Pentium-II" (CONFIG_M686) to "Athlon/Duron/K7" (CONFIG_MK7). In doing so I suddenly saw a LOT of problems with modules and the symbol _mmx_memcpy being undefined.
I finally kludged/fixed this by changing line 121 ofarch/i386/kernel/i386_ksyms.c from:
EXPORT_SYMBOL(_mmx_memcpy);
into:
EXPORT_SYMBOL_NOVERS(_mmx_memcpy);
That's on a vanilla 2.4.17 source tree.

you forgot to make mrproper ;) (or at least make clean) yes the makefile for modversions is missing a dependency......

I'll recheck with 'make mrproper' as I do always do a 'make clean'
(and dep for that matter) after changing configuration at all.
thanks,

Yup, 'make mrproper' followed by the usual steps gives me a thus-far
working kernel and modules.
thanks again,
