Basic kernel26 pkgbuild modified to include additional patch-2.6.14arch7.

What error have I made?

tomk · 2005-12-31 10:01:22

archck, as I'm sure you know, is based on the ck patchset, which already includes the .y patches from the vanilla kernel. So you don't need to apply patch-2.6.14.5, just patch-2.6.14-archck7. With both of them in there, you're trying to patch certain pieces of code twice, which won't work.

dtw · 2005-12-31 10:32:19

Also the whole initrd and archck thing might not work the greatest, iphitus is working on a release that will so I would wait for that and use that PKGBUILD

lilsirecho · 2006-01-07 00:58:01

Was able to modify the PKGBUILD and makepkg the archck7kernel.

I now desire to apply con kolivas patch2.6.15-ck1 to the 2.6.15Kernel26.

I have entered the patch-2.6.15-ck1 in the source of the 2.6.15Kernel26 pkgbuild and into the patch Np1 -i listing.

Thus I intend to add a single patch to the downloaded kernel.

The ...PKGBUILD requires ...pkgvers=(some entry)

If I enter..... 2.6.15-ck1...(the ID of the patch) an error message says I cannot use a dash(hyphen) in that entry.

Is there a way to enable the patching of the kernel with this download

tomk · 2006-01-07 10:05:04

I'm not completely clear on what you're doing, but I think this is it:

You have amended the PKGBUILD for the current Arch kernel package 2.6.15-2 to include the ck1 patch in the source array, and you have added an associated patch command. The only problem you have is that the pkgvers variable does not accept a hyphen.

If I'm right so far, why not just put

pkgvers=2.6.15ck1

lilsirecho · 2006-01-07 17:06:19

tomk;
Tried that, too. I get a fail in making the package....cannot find /2.6.15ck1 in directory...

Re-name of patch to accomodate the hyphen problem gives a ...failure to load module 2.6.15-ck1 (the original name of the patch) after running makepkg for 40 mins.

I surmise that the ID of the patch in arch is paramount, the downloaded patch preamble refers to linux-2.6.15 in all patch items.

Examining iphitus' archck7 shows each patch item has an archck preamble.

I therefore assume the patch has to be modified in order to utilize the PKGBUILD system in arch.

This assumption may be wrong...nothing new...been wrong many times before!!!

Thanks for the reply

tomk · 2006-01-07 18:50:59

I regularly build ck and archck kernels, and I never have to modify the patch. If you're trying to build an initrd kernel, that could be the difference - I use dibble's PKGBUILD from the wiki, and I don't need initrd.

Can you clarify which PKGBUILD you are using? The current kernel26 PKGBUILD declares pkgver, but doesn't actually use it for anything. This is because it is normally used to handle the .y patches, and 2.6.15 doesn't have .y yet.

lilsirecho · 2006-01-07 21:34:37

tomk;
Again, thanks for reply.

I have tried several PKGBUILDS, the latest DTW ..custom kernel.

I also ran using Judd's from the abs download of 2.6.15.

I entered ...config.... and changed the LOCAL VERSION entry.

I placed the untarred patch into the source listing as patch-2.6.15-ck1 which is its ID after untarring.

Some PKGBUILDS have additional entries(Judd's) which further confuse!

Googling says DTW PKGBUILD is no go for initrd kernel.

Wiki says many PKGBUILDS exist and all do the job 8)

Wiki isn't "quick"! It takes a lot of time to ingest all the possibilities it addresses and sort out what one needs.

I have an additional distress...when the PKGBUILD fails(not considered possible in the Wiki!) I have to remove directory src and directory pkg from the makepkg directory. When doing this (right click on src/pkg and select delete) the trash system burps up ...cannot rename ,,etc... and I have to repeat the command to get it into trash bin. Right click TRASH ..select empty trash bin... The story doesn't end there because I cannot re-run makepkg without receiving a corrupt linux-2.6.15.tar.bz2 error message. The saga continues...I find I have to do the following....find / -name linux-2.6.14.tar.bz2... It lists the /var/cache pacman listing of the tar but also lists the following .../root/.local/share/trash/src/linux2.6.15.tar.bz2.

After rm..the above, I can then re-run PKGBUILD with normal response to the linux tar.

I have to do this upon every failure. It may be just my system.

There is no mention of failure in the wiki which is most likely(failure) in dealing with bleeding-edge i686 OS kernels and patches. Some indication that removal of the directories is required should appear in the event the user mistypes and causes a failure to build! ( like a WARNING box).

I have made many attempts...most failed because of the DELETE until I discovered it..but I guess now it is initrd, since you reminded me of the possibility.. It may have caused the patch-2.6.15-ck1 to be rejected as a module during one of my builds after 40 minutes of activity!!!!

Have no idea what elements I can delete from PKGBUILD to enable a custom kernel to be built.

I had hopes of a 2.6.15 kernel patched-ck1 but I suspect I have to wait until the dust settles

tomk · 2006-01-07 22:21:56

TBH, lilsirecho, I've no idea why you're having so many problems, but maybe this will help.

The following is the PKGBUILD that I use for my server kernels, which run the server variant of the ck patch. It's a slightly modified version of dibble's one, and this particular one builds 2.6.15-cks1, but I just change the kernel version and ck version as required. I have automated the CONFIG_LOCALVERSION entry, as I always put <hostname.date> in there, but you can comment that and do it manually either. As I mentioned above, I don't use initrd, so make sure your kernel config allows for that.

Ran this PKGBUILD and downloaded the kernel tar OK in eight minutes.

Build failed to download the patch-2.6.15-ck1.bz2.

Have I made a bad reference to that patch?

Prior to this makepkg run, I deleted /var/cache/pacman/pkg-2.6.15.tar.bz2 and all the /root/.local/share/trash....etc references to linux-2.6.15.pkg.tar.bz2. Thus, I had to download a fresh tar pkg.

The result was the package was downloaded but the above error was encountered upon starting ...makepkg.

I have seen this error at least a dozen times.

I received several error messages with other trials of this PKGBUILD which occured after long periods of install activity. None of the error messages were consistent with the same error. The only exception is the error that occurs before the build gets started as shown in the error message above.

I still get the goofy action when trying to delete /src and /pkg.

I am in archck7 kernel. I will move to 2.6.15 kernel and try again.

tomk · 2006-01-08 10:24:49

Man, you're unlucky. AFAICS, makepkg is trying to execute lines 86, 88 etc as commands, when they are actually the destination parameter for install or cp commands on the previous line - the line feed is escaped () but for some reason it's not working properly.

Here's something else to try - I've amended my original PKGBUILD to do exactly what you want i.e. get the 2.6.15 source and the ck1 patch, run make oldconfig, and build. I've put it in a bzipped tarball here.
Create a new directory, download and extract the PKGBUILD (don't be tempted to edit it!), copy in your config, and run makepkg.

If that doesn't work, send me your config and I'll build your kernel for you here.

lilsirecho · 2006-01-08 17:29:37

Downloaded the PKGBUILD and starting up a directory now.
Cul

Thanks for help!

lilsirecho · 2006-01-08 18:50:13

Success with PKGBUILD a la' TOMK!!!!

Generated Kernel2615-ck1 with the PKGBUILD.

I entered thePKGBUILD into /var/absl/local5 , transferred config into that location, transferred kernel26.install into that location and also linux_clut224.ppm. I then ran makepkg on that directory

I will study the diff with respect to my original PKGBUILD in order to understand the process better.

I have modified kernels before via config changes but this run was my first patch of a kernel with a local PKGBUILD construction. I havefile:///root/Desktop/bashcomp.gif kernel26archk7 installed but that was via iphitus PKGBUILD.

I intend to practice this procedure on another HDD in order that I more fully understand how to make it go.

I commend you for sticking with me and providing a solution

The arch system is certainly "bleeding edge" on my keyboard!!!![/img]

lilsirecho · 2006-01-08 19:10:48

Installed kernel, edited lilo (with initrd), ran /sbin/lilo and rebooted.

Result: Busy box..can't access tty control turned off....

I assume this is caused by the initrd entry in lilo.

Perhaps I should try removing it?

tomk · 2006-01-08 19:24:47

Yeah - this is not an initrd kernel.
