I posted this a while ago but got no replies. When I compiled 2.6.0 today, the warning was still there, so I felt that a repost might be useful for someone.
I thought it would be best to report this warning I get at the very end of the compiling-process. I'm no programmer or kernel- developer, so there is no way for me to tell of what significance this is.
Anyway, I get this message even after a 'make mrproper', so I'm quite sure it's not a problem with old junk-files or something. When I look in setup.S at line 165, I find nothing but a reference to MAXMEM-1 or something like that, and it does seem odd that the value gets truncated into an identical value (unless the value was truncated before the message got printed, that is).
--------------------------------------- AS arch/i386/boot/setup.o arch/i386/boot/setup.S: Assembler messages: arch/i386/boot/setup.S:165: Warning: value 0x37ffffff truncated to 0x37ffffff LD arch/i386/boot/setup ---------------------------------------
I'm running i386-systems with the 2.6.0-kernel. I got the same message on two different computers, one AMD Athlon TBird, and one Intel Celeron.
Is this a known problem, and is there a fix to this somehow?
