Errors Building mLinux Firmware Image

[Benjamin Artes]

I’m attempting to build the mLinux Firmware image and encountering errors. In particular, after running bitbake mlinux-factory-image I receive various /usr/bin/ld: mpn/.libs/invert_limb.o: relocation R_X86_64_32S against protected symbol '__gmpn_invert_limb_table' can not be used when making a shared object errors. From the looks of it, this means that limb wasn’t built with the fPIC (Position Independent Code) flag.

Built with Latest Ubuntu 16.04.

Is this a known error? Is there a version of Ubuntu that is known working (I geta warning that 16.04 hasn’t been validated)

[John Klug]

The newest Ubuntu that I know works is 14.04LTS. We also do builds on 12.04LTS.

Thanks for letting us know.

Thanks, seems to be building on 14.04 (400 of 4700 done).

I just got back from a small vacation and checked on the build of mLinux using stock Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. It failed with the following errors:

This error means that your build system kernel is not supported by the icedtea build. Apparently you are on Linux kernel 4.2.0-27?

>&2 echo “*** This OS is not supported:” ‘uname -a’; exit 1;

For instance, my Ubuntu 14.04 system is kernel 3.13.0.

[Brandon Bayer]

Yeah, mLinux doesn’t currently build with a 4.x kernal 🙁

[Benjamin Artes]

Thanks guys. [Turns out the 14.04.5 LTS of Ubuntu updated the kernel.](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseNotes#Kernel)

Downloading 14.04.1 release now to try again.
