[Xen-devel] compilation fails with __stack_check_fail in xen-3.0.4

["pradeep singh rautela" <rautelap@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

I downloaded the xen-3.0.4 source from xensource site and compiled it from source.

On giving a make world , the make fails after almost finishing the compilation. 
The error i got is - 

init/built-
in.o: In function `try_name':
do_mounts.c:(.text+0x5f3): undefined reference to `__stack_chk_fail'
init/built-in.o: In function `name_to_dev_t':

init/built-in.o:initramfs.c:(.init.text+0x4d73): more undefined references to `__stack_chk_fail' follow
make[4]: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1

make[2]: *** [
linux-2.6-xen-install] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/opt/xen-3.0.4_1-src'
make[1]: *** [install-kernels] Error 1

I am not able to understand the error messages and their intended purpose in built-in.o
 . 
Also i am not able to find the __stack_chk_fail being referred from any of these functions. 
Are these some linker specific symbols or similar? 

Please note i am running Ubuntu6.10 Edgy Eft.
GCC 4.1 
Kernel 2.6.20.1 (This is not required i guess)

Somehow i suspect gcc4.1 is playing the spoilsport here. :-( 

Any help?

Thanks
