Hi all,
After merging the tip tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64 allmodconfig)
failed like this:
DESCEND objtool
CC /home/sfr/next/x86_64_allmodconfig/tools/objtool/builtin-check.o
CC /home/sfr/next/x86_64_allmodconfig/tools/objtool/special.o
CC /home/sfr/next/x86_64_allmodconfig/tools/objtool/elf.o

elf.c:22:23: fatal error: sys/types.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

builtin-check.c:28:20: fatal error: string.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
objtool.c:28:19: fatal error: stdio.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
and further errors ...
This build is done with a PowerPC hosted cross compiler with no glibc.
I assume that some things here need to be built with HOSTCC?
Presumably caused by commit
9e54249679b4 ("Merge branch 'core/objtool'")
and the commit series that was merged.
I tried to revert that merge, but it had conflicts, so I just used the
tip tree from next-20160229 for today.
