Compiling issue

[FlyBoyA]

Hello Guys,
When I try to compile the kernel & run the command "make -j4 zImage" I get the following error.

naqvi@raspberrypi:~/rpi-kernel/linux $ make -j4 zImage ./scripts/gcc-version.sh: line 26: /home/naqvi/rpi-kernel/tools/arm-bcm2708/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-raspbian/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error ./scripts/gcc-version.sh: line 27: /home/naqvi/rpi-kernel/tools/arm-bcm2708/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-raspbian/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error /home/naqvi/rpi-kernel/tools/arm-bcm2708/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-raspbian/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected /home/naqvi/rpi-kernel/tools/arm-bcm2708/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-raspbian/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected /home/naqvi/rpi-kernel/tools/arm-bcm2708/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-raspbian/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected CHK include/config/kernel.release /home/naqvi/rpi-kernel/tools/arm-bcm2708/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-raspbian/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected Cannot use CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR: -fstack-protector not supported by compiler /home/naqvi/rpi-kernel/tools/arm-bcm2708/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-raspbian/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected make: *** [Makefile:1115: prepare-compiler-check] Error 1 make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

Do you any suggestions?

That's an old compiler. Please follow our documented build instructions: https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/computers/linux_kernel.html#building

I'm trying to have Xenomai RTOS on raspberry pi 3B
Having rpi linux 4.14.36
with the ipipe arm patch 4.14.36 , I have patched the kernel & did the configuration now while building the kernel configuration I had the command make bcm2709_deconfig but it didn't had the file as I checked it had -rw-r--r-- 1 naqvi naqvi 3737 Mar 13 13:26 bcm2835_defconfig

If I follow the command it throws the error
naqvi@raspberrypi:~/rpi-kernel/linux $ KERNEL=kernel7

naqvi@raspberrypi:~/rpi-kernel/linux $ make bcm2708_defconfig

*** Can't find default configuration "arch/arm/configs/bcm2708_defconfig"!

make[1]: *** [scripts/kconfig/Makefile:113: bcm2708_defconfig] Error 1
make: *** [Makefile:517: bcm2708_defconfig] Error 2

could you guide what could be done

[pelwell]

4.14 is a blast from the past - that's nearly 5 years old!

bcm2709_defconfig exists in rpi-4.14.y: https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/blob/rpi-4.14.y/arch/arm/configs/bcm2709_defconfig

If it doesn't exist in your tree then you don't have our kernel - perhaps you've checked out an upstream commit? Try git checkout origin/rpi-4.14.y.

[FlyBoyA]

I run the command to check
make kernelversion
4.14.36

git branch
rpi-6.6.y

But the issue I'm facing here is to patch the kernel with the same version that's not matching

[pelwell]

Did you read my previous answer?

Try "git checkout origin/rpi-4.14.y"

[FlyBoyA]

Yes I did that and followed to patch the kernel again and the after trying the command below I get the error

Do you have idea about this?

[FlyBoyA]

Do you have any update on this ?

[pelwell]

It's clear that you are doing something (possibly several things) wrong, in which case this is a request for help - not what this forum is for.

What's the output of git log --oneline | head?

[FlyBoyA]

I understand, I'm not so good at it so maybe there could be issue.
that's what I get.
If you could help me and guide me I'll be thankful.
