Installation Process and Problem Analysis of kernel-2.6.32-431.el6.src.rpm kernel source code

1. Install the kernel source code package:. SRC. rpm and. RPM packages have different installation methods. You can use rpm-qpl to query RPM content.

# Rpm-IVH kernel-2.6.32-431.el6.src.rpm

Warning: User mockbuild does not exist-using root

Warning: group mockbuild does not exist-using root

Ignore directly.

Ii. kernel source code is not generated in/usr/src for the following reasons:

The. SRC. RPM installation package will generate rpmbuild in the/root directory, which contains two directories: Sources and specs.

Source. Decompress the package to the/usr/src directory.

3. Install ncurses-devel gcc

4. Start running the make menuconfig configuration.

Remove wireless and infrared

V. Start Compilation: Make

Crypto/Signature/ksign-publickey.c: 2: 17: Error: Key. h: no such file or directory

Crypto/Signature/ksign-publickey.c: In function 'ksign _ init ':

Crypto/Signature/ksign-publickey.c: 10: Error: 'ksign _ def_public_key 'undeclared (first use in this function)

Crypto/Signature/ksign-publickey.c: 10: Error: (each undeclared identifier is reported only once

Crypto/Signature/ksign-publickey.c: 10: Error: for each function it appears in .)

Crypto/Signature/ksign-publickey.c: 11: Error: 'ksign _ def_public_key_size 'undeclared (first use in this function)

Make [2]: **** [crypto/Signature/ksign-publickey.o] Error 1

Make [1]: *** [crypto/Signature] Error 2

Make: *** [crypto] Error 2

Solution:

Run make menuconfig.

1) Select "enable loadable module support", then "module signature verification (experimental)". disable it.

2) then go back to the main menu, select "cryptographic API" then "in-kernel signature Checker (experimental)" and disable that one too.

Then go back again, save your Config and make your kernel. At least, it will pass this phase successfully.

6. Re-compile: Make

Net/wireless/wext-priv.c: In function 'ioctl _ private_call ':

Net/wireless/wext-priv.c: 207: Error: Implicit declaration of function 'call _ commit_handler'

Solution:

Drivers/NET/wireless/kconfig

Menuconfig WLAN

Bool "Wireless LAN"

Depends on! S390

+ Depends on Net
