I used the following commands which I found in the how-to question:
Follow the following steps:
1.Make sure that you are root.
2. cd /usr/src
3. cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs at cvs.infradead.org:/home/cvs login
(password: anoncvs)
4. cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs at cvs.infradead.org:/home/cvs co mtd
5. cd /usr/src/mtd/patches
6. sh patchin.sh -j /mykernel/kernel
== error message 1 ===
#fs/fs.o(.text+0x50eac): undefined reference to `zlib_compress'
#fs/fs.o(.text+0x50fac): undefined reference to `dynrubin_decompress'
#fs/fs.o(.text+0x50fc4): undefined reference to `zlib_decompress'
I found the zlib_.. and dynrubin_.. were added jffs2_.. prefix. That is
why it could not find those any more. Since I want to use jffs2 so I
include this flag. The -j flag is NOT in the how-to doc. Will a newer
kernel (2.4.20) work for this?
== error message 2 ==
#drivers/mtd/mtdlink.o(.text+0x1cc0): undefined reference to `__raw_readll'
Well, I did find that it missed raw_readll and raw_writell in
include/linux/mtd/map.h.
Inside the map.h, it used raw_readll and raw_writell.
But I can't simply include cfi.h in map.h since cfi.h needs map.h
definition too.
I need to add raw_readll and raw_writell definition in asm/io.h with
raw_readl and raw_writel.
Isn't the patch supposed to work? Did I miss something?
