[00:40] <robertfoss> hey
[00:41] <robertfoss> I've been running into building the linux kernel on ubuntu 16.10
[00:41] <robertfoss> scripts/mod/empty.c:1:0: error: code model kernel does not support PIC mode
[00:41] <robertfoss> ^ is what I've been seeing.
[00:41] <robertfoss> As far as I understand it, it relates to gcc6 bein the new default
[00:42] <robertfoss> is there a god way of working around it?
[00:43] <robertfoss> /s/god/good/
[09:12] <apw> robertfoss, there is a patch applied to the ubuntu kernel to sort that out
[16:14] <robertfoss> apw: could you link me to the patch?
