Module problem with 2.6.0-test9
Currently running Sarge on a PWS600au and some modules (not all) fail to
load with the error "Relocation overflow vs section X" where X varies
per module. This isn't new with test9, I noticed it on earlier kernels
too but I'm not sure where it started. I compiled the kernel with 3.3.2
and ld 2.14.90.0.6, the newest in sarge. XFS and reiserfs were two
modules that I tried to load but had them fail.
I did see a few posts on lkml about this in even 2.5 kernels but no
fixes or even acknowledgments of a problem, is there some form of work
around or fix in the works? I'd be more than willing to test workarounds
or patches, the box isn't in production for anything.
Thanks,
Jim.
