I attempted to natively build a 3.18.3 kernel from the master branch of
https://github.com/MIPS/CI20_linux on the CI20 Create running Fedora 24. However, Fedora
24 is using gcc 6 and the build does not find an include/linux/compiler-gcc6.h file in the
source tree. For the time being I copied the include/linux/compiler-gcc5.h to be
include/linux/compiler-gcc6.h and that allows the kernel to build. Is three more
appropriate sources than this to use for a locally built kernel? Is there something
closer to the upstream kernel that is usable? I would like to enable kprobes, uprobes,
and debuginfo to experiment with systemtap on the system.
