#164: Building Coreboot v4 r5555/5554 fails mysteriously on Debian lenny and etch (x86) ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: juhe@… | Owner: stepan@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: coreboot | Keywords: makefile, debian Dependencies: | Patchstatus: there is no patch ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- I am trying to build Coreboot v4 from SVN with default settings, but I get build failures. The build environment is Debian Linux on x86.
Process goes as follows: {{{ - check out coreboot trunk from SVN as per wiki instructions - run "make menuconfig", select QEMU hardware (default), ROM size either 256K or 1M - run "make": }}} {{{ coreboot.r5554$ make HOSTCC util/romcc/romcc (this may take a while) ROMCC mainboard/emulation/qemu-x86/bootblock.inc GEN bootblock/bootblock.c CC mainboard/emulation/qemu-x86/bootblock.s CC mainboard/emulation/qemu-x86/bootblock.o GEN bootblock/ldscript.ld LINK bootblock.elf OBJCOPY coreboot.bootblock HOSTCC cbfstool/common.o [..cut..] HOSTCC util/options/build_opt_tbl OPTION option_table.h GEN build.h ROMCC romstage.inc GEN romstage/crt0.S CC mainboard/emulation/qemu-x86/crt0.s CC mainboard/emulation/qemu-x86/crt0.initobj.o make: *** No rule to make target `/optbuild/lib/uart8250.initobj.o', needed by `build/coreboot.romstage'. Stop. }}}
I have tried this on two separate Debian/lenny machines with the same results. Is Debian somehow broken or Coreboot build scripts? Or am I making some mistake? What is this directory /optbuild and why coreboot build is trying to create/access it? I tried to grep "optbuild" from the sources, but it does not seem to exist there.
Trying the same on Debian/etch (older release): {{{ % make mkdir: cannot create directory `/optbuild': Permission denied mkdir: cannot create directory `/optbuild': Permission denied mkdir: cannot create directory `/optbuild': Permission denied mkdir: cannot create directory `/optbuild': Permission denied mkdir: cannot create directory `/optbuild': Permission denied mkdir: cannot create directory `/optbuild': Permission denied mkdir: cannot create directory `/optbuild': Permission denied ROMCC mainboard/emulation/qemu-x86/bootblock.inc GEN bootblock/bootblock.c CC mainboard/emulation/qemu-x86/bootblock.s CC mainboard/emulation/qemu-x86/bootblock.o GEN bootblock/ldscript.ld LINK bootblock.elf collect2: ld terminated with signal 11 [Segmentation fault] make: *** [build/bootblock.elf] Error 1 }}} This looks like broken ld in Debian, or something going wrong in the build process.
