The merge window for 4.2 is open so I created the first alpha today.
I cross compilied this alpha1 on my x86_64 PC today. I'd like to know the performance differences between the alpha1 and the 4.1 final.
Code: Select all
git clone --depth=1 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git linux-git
Cross compiling instructions:
System requirements: Ubuntu 14.04 x86 or higher
- Install the toolchain with the following commands:
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install gcc-powerpc-linux-gnu
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install build-essential
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev
- Create an alpha1 config based on the old 4.1 final config:
Code: Select all
make CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux-gnu- ARCH=powerpc oldconfig
- Compile the Linux kernel:
Code: Select all
make CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux-gnu- ARCH=powerpc vmlinux
- Compile the Linux kernel modules:
Code: Select all
make CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux-gnu- ARCH=powerpc modules
- Install the Linux kernel modules:
Code: Select all
sudo make CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux-gnu- ARCH=powerpc modules_install
Download:
vmlinux-4.2-alpha1-AMIGA_one_X1000.tar.bz2
Please, test the cross compiled kernel.

I wonder if you could test the alpha1. I would appreciate it very much.

There was a lot of changes for powerpc today so I had to create a new patch for the kernel 4.2.
nemo_4.2-2.patch

Hi,
does it work on your X1000 ?
On mine, it crashs at boot.
Loaded from CF (on the same CF, 4.1rc4 boots fine)
Here are my nvgetvar
Code: Select all
speed=set pmu -astate=A4
STARTUP=speed ; menu
MENU_0_COMMAND=boot -fs=amigafs ide0.0:amigaboot.of
bootargs=root=/dev/sda4 rw
MENU_3_COMMAND=boot -elf -noints -fatfs cf0:vmlinux-4.1
os4_commandline=SERIAL DEBUGLEVEL=5
MENU_2_COMMAND=boot -elf -noints -fatfs cf0:vmlinux-4.2
MENU_2_LABEL=Ubuntu 15.04 - Kernel 4.2
MENU_3_LABEL=Ubuntu 15.04 - Kernel 4.1
framebuffer=800/600/8/0x90000000/832
BOOT_CONSOLE=pcconsole0
CFE_VERSION=PAS-2.0.30
CFE_BOARDNAME=NEMO

I will do that tomorrow.
Just to be sure to test the good one, do you have a link ?
And is the 4.2 works on your X1000 ?

Thank you. Here is the link:
vmlinux-4.1-AMIGA_one_X1000.tar.bz2
Unfortunately, I can't test the alpha1 of kernel 4.2 on my A1-X1000 currently.

Not the same crash but unsucessful too...

Thank you for testing! I tested the kernel 4.1 final successfully on my A1-X1000 last Monday.
@All
Could someone else test the kernel 4.1 final and the alpha1 of kernel 4.2, please?
