kernel .config (4.18.20, PowerMac G4 DP)
Hmm, strange...
I tried to bisect but found out that this issue goes back to kernel v4.18.20 at
least. This one is the earliest I am able to build with
GCC_PLUGIN_LATENT_ENTROPY=y, kernels before error out with:
make: ngcc: No such file or directory
Cannot use CONFIG_GCC_PLUGINS: plugin support on gcc <= 5.1 is buggy on
powerpc, please upgrade to gcc 5.2 or newer
I used gcc 9.4.0 and reduced the kernel .config a lot but it's still the same.
v4.18.20 with GCC_PLUGIN_LATENT_ENTROPY=y freezes at this early boot stage,
without GCC_PLUGIN_LATENT_ENTROPY booting continues.
Also GCC_PLUGIN_LATENT_ENTROPY=y makes no problem on my G5 either. So it's only
the G4 which is affected. Wildly guessing this may be a 32bit PowerPC gcc
specific thing?
