Warning during kernel configuration

Hi Thomas,

Have you cleaned the linux and re-build the linux ?

Please follow the commands to build kernel.

cd /opt/ti-sdk-am335x-evm-07.00.00.00/board-support/linux-3.12.10-ti2013.12.01

make distclean ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf-

make tisdk_am335x-evm_defconfig ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf-

make uImage ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf-

Hi Titus, 

I have follow your steps, but still encountered same warning.

Hi,

Are you getting any problem for building kernel due to this warning message ?

hrjung@hrjung-VirtualBox:~/work/kernel/linux-3.12.10-ti2013.12.01$

Have you installed SDK 7.0 or simply copied kernel source alone from any other machine ?

Please refer to the following E2E post.

Hi Titus,

I have copied kernel at tisdk~/board_support/linux-3.12.10-ti2013.12.01 to my working folder to maintain clean source package
actually I have no problem during building kernel, zImage, dtbs, modules

however I am worried about such warning related with errata, maybe it cause some mal-function.

what is the content of this errata ?  

Don't you have any way to workaround this errata ?

BRs,

HRJung

Are you getting the same behavior on "tisdk~/board_support/linux-3.12.10-ti2013.12.01" this directory too ?

I think, you can ignore this error.

Otherwise  you can check this below "definition" in make menuconfig, that could be enabled by mistake.

SOC_OMAP5

SOC_DRA7XX

Hi Titus,

sorry for late response.

As I have checked, SOC_OMAP5 and SOC_DRA7XX are enabled at tisdk_am335x-evm_defconfig by default.

Are you sure that both "definition" are disabled on Beaglebone black ?

please confirm.


BRs,

Hi HRJung,

Yes, you can remove those options if you want to remove that warning message.

The "SOC_OMAP5" and "SOC_DRA7XX" options not depend with beagle bone board since AM335x is SOC_OMAP3.
I think, they have enabled all the OMAP+ SOC since SDK 7.0 version which support dts.
