And I got the following build errors on !SMP:
kernel/built-in.o: In function `run_ksoftirqd':
/usr/local/autobench/var/tmp/build/kernel/softirq.c:739: undefined reference to `.smpboot_thread_check_parking'
kernel/built-in.o: In function `watchdog':
/usr/local/autobench/var/tmp/build/kernel/watchdog.c:383: undefined reference to `.smpboot_thread_check_parking'
kernel/built-in.o: In function `spawn_ksoftirqd':
/usr/local/autobench/var/tmp/build/kernel/softirq.c:853: undefined reference to `.smpboot_register_percpu_thread'
kernel/built-in.o: In function `lockup_detector_init':
/usr/local/autobench/var/tmp/build/kernel/watchdog.c:514: undefined reference to `.smpboot_register_percpu_thread'
My guess is that !SMP needs empty definitions of these functions.
Thanx, Paul
