Lab 3_2 git apply failed

Former Member

Hi,

I am trying Lab 3_2, step 9.
When I type the command "git apply 0001-Xilinx-ARM-Driver-for-LED-brightness-device.patch," the console shows the following errors:

error: patch failed: drivers/Kconfig:138
error: drivers/Kconfig: patch does not apply
error: patch failed: drivers/Makefile:134
error: drivers/Makefile: patch does not apply

Does anyone have the same issue?

Thanks

    SDK version does not matter.  "git apply" is a version control command to apply changes to file (like a patch).  The error means the software either can't find the file, or the files has being change so much that the tool doesn't know how to apply the patch anymore

    Looks like they have updated the repository recently, which is why the patch doesn't work anymore.  You should try to revert to an earlier version of the code than try to apply the patch.  Check out git reference for how to do that.
