In this mailing list archive I found a discussion on how to compile
kenrel 2.6.x with Intel C++ compiler, but it was a bit old, and only
kernel patch for version 2.6.5 or around so can be found.   As mine is
HT enabled, I want newer one.

Does anyone know where to find it, or how to make it?

regards,

The kernel is designed to be compiled with the GNU 'C' compler
supplied with every distribution. It uses a lot of __asm__()
statements and other GNU-specific constructions.

Why would you even attempt to convert the kernel sources to
be compiled with some other tools? Also C++ won't work because
the kernel is all about method, i.e., procedures. You need
a procedural compiler for most of it, not an object-oriented
one.
