Hi Christophe, Here's the steps to reproduce (I'm doing this in an Ubuntu 16.04/arm64 QEMU/KVM VM): tar xfJ linux-4.3.3.tar.xz cd linux-4.3.3 make defconfig # enable simple module for testing echo "CONFIG_OVERLAY_FS=m" >> .config make oldconfig make Image modules sudo make install sudo reboot Then, on reboot: $ sudo dmesg -c > /dev/null $ sudo modprobe overlay modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'overlay': Exec format error $ dmesg [ 336.449238] module overlay: unsupported RELA relocation: 275 ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1533009 Title: arm64: "unsupported RELA relocation" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gcc-linaro/+bug/1533009/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
