error encountered during setup of KVM VMI

[darshantank]

Hello All,

I was trying to setup KVM VMI on my host running ubuntu 16.04. Followed the instructions given at https://github.com/KVM-VMI/kvm-vmi/wiki/KVM-VMI-setup

While running "make -j4 bzImage" command, terminal shows the following error.

What are the possible causes of such errors? Kindly share your views.

Thanks

hi @darshantank ,

I don't really know what happened here, it's compilation issue.
What I do know is that I always need to install openssl-dev before compiling a kernel on Debian.

Also, try no to compile stuff as root (maybe this is the root cause here ??)

Did you try to do:

• make distclean (this will also erase your .config)
• make olddefconfig
• tune the .config with make menuconfig and setup KVM introspection
• and retry the build
