<div>Thank you! It worked and I finally got a working kernel.

<div>And I think current issue with "Kernel panic - not syncing: IO-APIC + timer doesn't work!" is also clear.</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>timer_irq_works(void) never returns 1:</div>
<div><a href="https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/d966564fcdc19e13eb6ba1fbe6b8101070339c3d/arch/x86/kernel/apic/io_apic.c#L1641" target="_blank">https://github.com/torvalds/<wbr />linux/blob/<wbr />d966564fcdc19e13eb6ba1fbe6b810<wbr />1070339c3d/arch/x86/kernel/<wbr />apic/io_apic.c#L1641</a></div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I think it happens because of jiffies (<a href="http://www.makelinux.net/books/lkd2/ch10lev1sec3#ch10fig01" target="_blank">http://www.makelinux.net/<wbr />books/lkd2/ch10lev1sec3#<wbr />ch10fig01</a>)</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>It should have the same address as jiffies_64:</div>
<div><a href="https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/b66484cd74706fa8681d051840fe4b18a3da40ff/arch/x86/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S#L41" target="_blank">https://github.com/torvalds/<wbr />linux/blob/<wbr />b66484cd74706fa8681d051840fe4b<wbr />18a3da40ff/arch/x86/kernel/<wbr />vmlinux.lds.S#L41</a></div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>And that is true for BFD linked binary:</div>
<div> 10595: ffffffff8140b000 8 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 8 jiffies</div>
<div> 11730: ffffffff8140b000 8 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 8 jiffies_64</div>
<div> </div>
<div>But something is wrong with them for LLD case:</div>
<div> 6422: ffffffff8140b000 8 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 19 jiffies</div>
<div> 7416: ffffffff<span><span>81400000</span></span> 0 NOTYPE GLOBAL DEFAULT 19 jiffies_64</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I think we probably incorrectly assign symbols outside SECTIONS declarations in scripts. Looking at it.<br />
