dell_rbu gcc version conflict

[Davis_Phillips at Dell.com]

I have seen this error a bunch recently. Check the output of gcc -v. You
can usually resolve the issue by rebuilding dell_rbu with the GCC
version that the krnel was built against. Relink gcc essentially.
Alternatively, a insmod -f on the dell_rbu module should work as well.

Subject: dell_rbu gcc version conflict

Hi Folks,

I'm trying to install OMI-SrvAdmin-Dell-Web-LX-50_A00.tar.gz on an FC3
box running 2.6.12-1.1381_FC3smp. When I try to startup the services, I
get the following:

./srvadmin-services.sh start
Starting mptctl:

Looking in /var/log/dell_rbu.log, I see:

FATAL: Error inserting dell_rbu
(/lib/modules/2.6.12-1.1381_FC3smp/kernel/drivers/firmware/dell_rbu.ko):

FATAL: Error inserting dell_rbu
(/lib/modules/2.6.12-1.1381_FC3smp/kernel/drivers/firmware/dell_rbu.ko):
Invalid module format

and in dmesg, I see:


dell_rbu: version magic '2.6.12-1.1381_FC3smp SMP 686 REGPARM 4KSTACKS
gcc-4.1' should be '2.6.12-1.1381_FC3smp SMP 686 REGPARM 4KSTACKS
gcc-3.4'

I've seen this gcc error before, but that was when I was using version
4.5 - and previously my fix had been to upgrade to OMSA 5.0. Can anyone
suggest another avenue of attack?

Thanks, Tom
