If the gitk package is installed, you can run "git bisect visualize" at any step to watch the regression range narrowing. Eventually it will spit out the "first bad commit", or if you get bored before that, you can run "git bisect log" to get a summary of the tests you have run, which is almost as good. Git bisect skip # if some other problem makes it hard to testĦ. Git bisect good # if compressed kernels work fine Git bisect bad # if it reproduces the problem A version halfway between is automatically checked out to test: Make silentoldconfig # reuse configuration Make sure kernel is flashed, reboot, test the uncompressed and compressed versions Make deb-pkg # optionally with -j for parallel build

Make localmodconfig # minimal configuration

Or, if you already have a git checkout of the kernel, update it:Ĭp /boot/config-$(uname -r). Git clone git:///pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git Purdyd, can you bisect? It works somewhat like this (feel free to tweak for cross-compilation and building on a different machine from where the kernel runs as appropriate):

new kernel 3.2 does not boot on the dockstar Ĭc-ing Raphael since this is a regression (and so should block bug 42566 to get on the list).

Re: Linux kernels 3.2 & 3.3-rc1 are broken!.

Here are some links that show a few of the discussions that are going on regarding this: 3.1.10 works just fine on Kirkwood - no problems there. this is _not_ the arch/arm/asm/bug.h compile time problem that is causing problems in ARMĢ. This is not the default for Debian armel packages or other Kirkwood installations, though, and won't be suitable as a longterm fix.ġ. We have confirmed that an _uncompressed_ kernel will boot completely. lzma (or vice versa) for the compression changes the results sometimes, but not alway. Users from some forums have noted that using gzip vs. Results are the same, a non-booting uImage. The same behavior is seen whether we use "make uImage" or "make-kpkg -rootcmd fakeroot -arch armel -append-to-version=-kirkwood -revision=1.0 -initrd kernel_image" Image Type: ARM Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed) # Loading init Ramdisk from Legacy Image at 01100000.

Image Type: ARM Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed) # Booting kernel from Legacy Image at 00800000.

Attempts at booting these 3.2 and 3.3 kernels show a complete dead hang on the serial output: Package(s): Linux Kernel 3.2.x and 3.3.0-rc1īuild a uImage kernel either natively on Debian Squeeze or Wheezy, with build-essential etc., with the CodeSourcery CrossCompile ToolChain, with ArchLinux or any other kernel build setup. Problem: (compressed uImage) Kernel will not boot on many Kirkwood devices (Dockstar, some PogoPlugs, others)

We've found a severe/grave problem with the 3.2 & 3.3-rc1 kernels on certain Kirkwood machines.
