RE: [Xen-devel] build failure caused by $(XEN_ROOT)/.config

["Kay, Allen M" <allen.m.kay@xxxxxxxxx>]

Here is the exact build error I get in xen-4.1-testing:

 

make[4]: Entering directory `/tmp/xen-4.1-testing.hg/tools/check'

make[4]: *** ../../.config: Is a directory.  Stop.

make[4]: Leaving directory `/tmp/xen-4.1-testing.hg/tools/check'

make[1]: *** [clean] Error 2

make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/xen-4.1-testing.hg'

make: *** [world] Error 2

Hi Juergen,

 

This patch fixes the build problem for xen-unstable but do not apply to xen-4.1-testing.  Xen-4.1-testing do not have xfs directory and still has the same build error.

I’m using the latest staging tree (cs# 23903) and still seeing this problem.

Uuh, the same bug was introduced again.
Could you try the following patch:

diff -r 0b66e6450ffe tools/libfsimage/xfs/Makefile
--- a/tools/libfsimage/xfs/Makefile     Tue Oct 04 14:18:30 2011 +0200
+++ b/tools/libfsimage/xfs/Makefile     Thu Oct 06 06:32:00 2011 +0200
@@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ XEN_ROOT = ../../..
-XEN_ROOT = ../../..
+XEN_ROOT = $(CURDIR)/../../..
 
 LIB_SRCS-y = fsys_xfs.c
 

Keir, it is easy to catch this problem: create a .config file in all directories
_above_ $XEN_ROOT containing something like:

$(error usage of relative XEN_ROOT somewhere in $(MAKEFILE_LIST))

Hi Keir,

 

I’m getting the following build error caused by “-include $(XEN_ROOT)/.config” line in Config.mk.  Removing it from Config.mk makes the error go away.  The OS I’m using is FC15.  “$(XEN_ROOT)/.config” does not exist.

This is fixed with cs 23049 in xen-unstable:
