[Buildroot] snps_aarch64_vdk_defconfig fails to build

[Thomas Petazzoni]

Hello João,

I know you have left Synopsys, so you probably can't help directly, but
maybe you can point to someone else in Synopsys who can help. The
snps_aarch64_vdk_defconfig you contributed about a year ago no longer
builds. It fails with some weird messages from the assembler, during
the Linux kernel build:

  CC      arch/arm64/kernel/cpuinfo.o
/tmp/ccx1uMC9.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccx1uMC9.s:42: Error: .err encountered
/tmp/ccx1uMC9.s:43: Error: .err encountered
/tmp/ccx1uMC9.s:44: Error: .err encountered
/tmp/ccx1uMC9.s:103: Error: .err encountered
/tmp/ccx1uMC9.s:104: Error: .err encountered
/tmp/ccx1uMC9.s:105: Error: .err encountered
make[3]: *** [arch/arm64/kernel/psci.o] Error 1
make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

See

for the full build log.

Are you able to point us to someone who could help us fix this issue?

Thanks,

Thomas
