Basically, when building arch/arm64/kernel/signal.o for example, it doesn't figure out that vdso-offsets.h has additional dependencies like the vdso.so.dbg so that it builds the vdso object first. I'll look for a little longer, maybe I find a better workaround. -- Catalin _______________________________________________ linux-arm-kernel mailing list linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel
