Linux Kernel Compiltaion Fails Without Error

Locked

Tags: Linux

Hi

I am trying to add new system call to linux kernel but it fails without giving me any error here is the last lines before it stops. My Kernel Version: 5.15.0

Kernel Version I am installing: 5.17.4 & x86_64

CC kernel/iomem.o
CC kernel/rseq.o
CC kernel/watch_queue.o
CHK kernel/kheaders_data.tar.xz
GEN kernel/kheaders_data.tar.xz
AR kernel/built-in.a
CC [M] kernel/kheaders.o

after these lines it just stops, no error no warning.

That would not be enough for anyone to tell you why.

Given the tarpit this is, I suggest you go back to the beginning where the kernel compiles and works then add something very very small that does nothing. If that fails then you have something small to figure out.

Also, find a reddit or linux developers discussion forum. Example:
