Subject: [Bug middle-end/45312] GCC 4.4.4 miscompiles (?) the Linux kernel, makes kernel unusable
Date: Wed, 18 Aug 2010 08:55:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100818085512.20520.qmail@sourceware.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <bug-45312-5637@http.gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/>



------- Comment #6 from jakub at gcc dot gnu dot org  2010-08-18 08:55 -------
Doing binary search shouldn't be too hard, just build two separate kernel
trees, one with the problematic patch applied, one without, with make V=1
output put into some log file in each case.
Then just start with the final link line and replace half of the
objects/libraries there with matching objects/libraries from the second build
and vice versa, test that kernel and depending on the results continue
narrowing it down to half of the object files/libraries etc., repeat until you
have e.g. working kernel with all objects with the patch applied except one (or
non-working kernel with all objects without the patch applied except one).
Or, if you suspect particular object files, try to change just those
immediately.
