bug in rtd1296-linux-4.4.x.txz

compiling a package for this arch (in my case "synokernel-usbserial" but I guess this may happen for others) produce this error message: /usr/bin/ld: scripts/dtc/dtc-parser.tab.o:(.bss+0x10): multiple definition of `yylloc'; scripts/dtc/dtc-lexer.lex.o:(.bss+0x0): first defined here build-rtd1296-6.2.4.log after modifying the file (suppress the 2nd definition of 'yylloc') /spksrc/distrib/kernel/6.2.4/linux-4.4.x/scripts/dtc/dtc-parser.tab.c_shipped all is OK and my package runs well on my ds118

Is it the right place to signal this ??

It is a really good place to start with although cycles are currently limited. When I'll do have more time I'll convert this into working patch and release a new package. Thnx for sharing your findings as it may actually solve other archs builds.

I spent so much time trying to communicate via USB between my ds118 and relay cards... Reading ttyUSBx was OK, but nothing was writing, despite no error message ! Your driver was compiled with kernel 4.4.59 and I needed 4.4.59+ So I decided to compile it, and I find spksrc very convenient I join the package if it can help synokernel-usbserial_rtd1296-6.2.4_1.0-8.spk.gz Yannick - another french guy...

[th0ma7]

That is odd as it should have been 4.4.59+ so there must be something wrong somewhere making this an issue. I'll follow-up on it. And Yannick, feel free to join our discord channel where there is also a french channel which can be used as needed. Cheers!

To anyone who will run into this problem.

sed -i 's/^YYLTYPE yylloc$/\/\/&/' /spksrc/kernel/syno-geminilake-7.0/work/linux/scripts/dtc/dtc-parser.tab.c_shipped

This command will uncommenent the line YYLTYPE yylloc in file dtc-parser.tab.c_shipped and therewith solve the double definition.

I've encountered the same problem while trying to do: https://github.com/sjtuross/syno-iptables

cd /spksrc
make setup
cd /spksrc/kernel/syno-geminilake-7.0
make
cd /spksrc/toolchain/syno-geminilake-7.0
make
cd /spksrc/kernel/syno-geminilake-7.0/work/linux
make prepare
make modules_prepare

@kursk140 and @scrapix you seems to be solving a somewhat similar issue

1. YYLTYPE yylloc definition being a) removing the second definition (on rtd1296) or b) "uncommenting" the definition (although after testing is actually comment out that definition so it looks like similar to the first approach
2. having an issue with a module not being built for 4.4.59+ kernel. Although while looking into the details its magic number looks all right vermagic=4.4.59+ SMP mod_unload aarch64

[th0ma7]

@kursk140 and @scrapix I've now opened-up a PR to patch rtd1296 and geminilake kernels to address this.

[th0ma7]

@kursk140 and @scrapix btw just wanted to say thnx as your finding allowed me to fix many other archs. Next time you use the framework it should be simpler.

It solves my compile problem on kernal modules build.Thks
