Thanks. > Hi Stephen, This broke the build for MIPS for the malta_defconfig when using the latest Mentor toolchain.

If you want to reproduce it you can do the following steps: - Get a MIPS Mentor toolchain from https://sourcery.mentor.com/GNUToolchain/release2554 - make ARCH=mips CROSS_COMPILE=$TOOLCHAIN_PATH/bin/mips-linux-gnu- malta_defconfig - make ARCH=mips CROSS_COMPILE=$TOOLCHAIN_PATH/bin/mips-linux-gnu- We are working with the toolchain group to come up with a workaround in the code to resolve the problem. -- markos -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
