[Solved] Sudo prompt during custom kernel compile

Good morning everybody!

I am trying to compile a 2.6.38-rc3 kernel but a few minutes into the compile, make will stop and prompt a password:

  ...
  LDS     arch/x86/vdso/vdso.lds
  AS      arch/x86/vdso/vdso-note.o
  CC      arch/x86/vdso/vclock_gettime.o
  CC      arch/x86/vdso/vgetcpu.o
  CC      arch/x86/vdso/vvar.o
  VDSO    arch/x86/vdso/vdso.so.dbg
Password:

My .config is here: http://pastebin.com/2ksAL6kB

Here is the output from uname -a:

 Linux bryan 2.6.37-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Jan 29 20:00:33 CET 2011 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU P8600 @ 2.40GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

I have tried compiling with both gcc-4.5.2-5 and gcc-multilib-4.5.2-5.  Compiling on a 32bit machine works without a problem.

Has anybody come across this problem before?  I'm trying to set up an automated testing framework for kernel changes, so entering a password on every kernel compile isn't an option.

Re: [Solved] Sudo prompt during custom kernel compile

The problem went away when I disabled ccache.  I still don't know what caused it initially...
