General Discussion

Hello,
I am quite new with Embedded Linux and Beaglebone black

I tried building kernel for beaglebone black using branch 4.9, 5.4 and 5.10 and i was able to build kernel successfully but after that i tried building kernel modules using following command:

make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- modules -j8

And i get this error:

arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc: fatal error: killed signal terminated program cc1 compilation terminated.

Kindly help , how can i fix it? Thanks a lot

From linaro i downloaded and installed 13.0 version but i just realized its unstable. So i am going to try with a stable version. And sorry do i need to disable CARL_9170?

Use gcc 8.x, it’s what we’ve built 4.19.x-ti against for most of it’s development life…
