Hi magicloud
This does not sound like a bug to me. The compiler identified it did not like that the file did not end with a
newline and terminated compilation.

One could call it a bug in the source ;)

I think it is an issue of this gcc. The source is linux kernel 3.7.9. And it compiled very well with other version or build of gcc.

Forgot to mention, I am using 32 bit of 5.x.

this version of gcc compiles linux-3.8.13 without similar problems...

Hi magicloud
On second thought, that was just a warning about a missing  linefeed  which it said it fixed. Maybe you just ran
out of memory.

Let me check that.
