 |
|
Hello folks ...
I wanted to have your opinion about this ebuild file, I wanted to submit a request for it to be added to the official repository, however I need peer review first! | Code: | EAPI="8"
inherit git-r3
DESCRIPTION="Full Linux kernel sources with the CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT develpment branch"
HOMEPAGE="https://wiki.linuxfoundation.org/realtime/start"
EGIT_REPO_URI="https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git -> linux-rt-devel-${P}.git"
EGIT_CLONE_TYPE="shallow"
LICENSE="GPL-2+"
SLOT="0"
KEYWORDS=""
src_unpack() {
git-r3_src_unpack
}
src_prepare() {
default
# 627796
sed \
"s/default PREEMPT_NONE/default PREEMPT_RT/g" \
-i "${S}/kernel/Kconfig.preempt" || die "sed failed"
}
src_compile() {
:;
}
src_install() {
dodir /usr/src/
cp -R "${S}/" "${D}/usr/src/" || die "Install failed!"
}
pkg_postinst() {
kernel-2_pkg_postinst
ewarn
ewarn "${PN} are *not* supported by the Gentoo Kernel Project in any way."
ewarn "If you need support, please contact the RT project developers directly."
ewarn "Do *not* open bugs in Gentoo's bugzilla unless you have issues with"
ewarn "the ebuilds."
ewarn
}
K_EXTRAEINFO="For more info on rt-sources and details on how to report problems, see: \
${HOMEPAGE}." |
The question is, is it possible to have 2 .config files for the same kernel at the same time under "/etc/portage/savedconfig/sys-kernel/" and choose one of them with the emerge command at build time? |

I think the Linux kernel license is GPL-2 only, not GPL-2+. | Demo wrote: | | Code: | src_unpack() {

Isn't this default since you only have one inherit? |

I think this means some of the current kernel release ebuilds need review

Noted! And thank you for the feedback.
There's another question, I was hesitant to ask it as I was still seeking some proof. On my previous Gentoo install, using make gconfig I was able to search the config options with ctrl+f and it was very convenient. It's not working now and I know that kernel documentation homepage says this option isn't available for gconfig which is also weird. However I'm sure I was able to use it somehow.
In order to recheck again I have to restore my previous install from its dump file which is absolutely daunting! Anyone else was able to search options on gconfig? And if yes what am I missing? |

Could you provide specifics? I checked the license line for vanilla-sources before my prior post, and it was GPL-2.

I think this question deserves a separate thread. |

Sure! Although I know many will just follow the official kernel documentation in their replies, which is absolutely correct, however I'm also sure I used it ... |

| BTW, I forgot to ask for help adding the USE flag "savedconfig" to the ebuild file. Or is it just safe to add an IUSE section with it? |
