make output

I am getting an error in compiling the 4.5 sources (patched up from 4.4).

After getting the error, I d/l'd the full source and compared the file above -- and it was identical to the above file.

I searched for the symbol "vmx_return" under the "arch/x86" dir, but only found it referenced in the above ".c" file.

I didn't get this error in the previous 4.4 line (I made 4.4.1 & 4.4.3) and current kernel-uname shows:

Linux Ishtar 4.4.3-Isht-Van #2 SMP PREEMPT Thu Feb 25 22:53:27 PST 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

At this point, I can't see why I'd get the above error. Make output and ".config" attached.

Try making that variable non extern as it has no need to be outside defined for outside the file you are getting a build error in.

--- Comment #4 from Linda Walsh <[email protected]> ---
Looking at this and not being very familiar w/the dialect of x86-64 assembler used, it looks like the intent of the extern with the

    extern const ulong vmx_return;

was to create a forward reference for the C-statement:

    vmcs_writel(HOST_RIP, vmx_return); /* 22.2.5 */

With 'vmx_return' being defined in the assembler, below:

".pushsection .rodata \n\t"
".global vmx_return \n\t"
"vmx_return: " _ASM_PTR " 2b \n\t"
".popsection"

It appears with the "push+pop-section, the bit in between is not "inline", but placed in the separate "rodata" area.

Is 2b supposed to be a value for initialization, or a size, or some number of _ASM_PTR's?

Either way, it sorta looks it might be easier if the ASM code defining the symbol should come before the C-Reference.

As it is now, the C-statement:

[extern] const ulong vmx_return

defines the "vmx_return" symbol as either an external reference, or as a global symbol (a "first" definition), with the ASM-code,

".global vmx_return \n\t"

declaring a 2nd vmx_return that is global and
and defined /allocated/initialized by the

        "vmx_return: " _ASM_PTR " 2b \n\t"

statement.

But I really don't know this asm dialect nor whether or not the usage of "vmx_return" in C must occur after the ASM definition or not.

It probably doesn't. Basically this is inline asm assembly for C using intel instructions so try removing the line for the C definition of vmx_return.

--- Comment #8 from Paolo Bonzini <[email protected]> --- Linda, please do the following:

1) reproduce with just "make V=1 arch/x86/kvm/". By omitting the -j the output of make becomes easier to follow.

2) copy and paste the line that fails, and add --save-temps at the end.

3) attach the resulting arch/x86/kvm/vmx.s file to the bug.

Currently marking as 'VERIFIED', as it seems to be the closest out of the choices available.

That allows it to compile -- though it may be a while before I can test it live.

The time between boots on my system tends toward large, due to difficulties I usually have in the suse boot process not being very reliable due to being in constant, backward-incompatible change, (last uptime was over 100 days, while currently am at 33 days w/4.4.3).

That said, though, since there seem to be no overt code changes and mostly directives to the compiler to stop misbehaving, I suspect it should work fine.

Thing I don't understand is why it compiled in 4.4.3 but not 4.5...knowing that would at least easy my curiosity if not my mind... ;-)

BTW -- sent the 2nd copy as my mailer farted halfway through sending, and I wasn't sure it went out (no record of it having gone out in mail-record file or in the mail.info log file, thus the 2nd copy).

Thanks for the quick turnaround...
