Hi

I applied first rmap12a ant then 2.4.18-pre7

then I removed line 502 (i think) "nr_pages--" from linux/mm/vmscan.c. (thanx to mjc)

Then I did make dep clean bzImage.

then I got some warnings:
In file included from /usr/src/linux/include/linux/modversions.h:144,

                 from /usr/src/linux/include/linux/module.h:21,
                 from dec_and_lock.c:1:

/usr/src/linux/include/linux/modules/ksyms.ver:249: warning: `__ver_waitfor_one_page' redefined /usr/src/linux/include/linux/modules/buffer.ver:13: warning: this is the location of the previous definition

And finally:

fs/fs.o(__ksymtab+0x38): multiple definition of __ksymtab_waitfor_one_page' kernel/kernel.o(__ksymtab+0x548): first defined here fs/fs.o(.kstrtab+0xfb): multiple definition of __kstrtab_waitfor_one_page' kernel/kernel.o(.kstrtab+0x10fa): first defined here
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1

Then I turned off loadable module support, and the kernel compiled ok.

I believe you applied this in the reverse order. Patch .17->.18-pre7->rmap12a. Use
http://www.cs.unc.edu/~chenda/Other/2.4.18-pre7_to_rmap12a.diff

I did a sanity build, and the kernel did compile and link correctly using default config (though I did not reboot as I'm running tied up at the moment).

Yes, this line is added by the -pre7 patch.

The reason I haven't upgraded -rmap to -pre7 yet is that I used to pull the new kernel patches from Ted T'so's 2.4 bitkeeper tree, but he hasn't updated his tree yet.

I think I'll have to re-do his changes to bk's import script so I can import incremental kernel patches with the changelog messages in the bk tree ...

regards,

Rik
