Package: kernel-package
Version: 10.045
Severity: normal
Hi,
with xen-3.0 now in unstable I tried building a xen kernel with
make-kpkg again and found some problems:
1) make-kpkg --subarch xen ...
exec debian/rules DEBIAN_REVISION=2.6.16-xen-1 APPEND_TO_VERSION=-xen-1
KPKG_SUBARCH=xen ROOT_CMD=fakeroot kernel-image
...
Makefile:525:
/home/mrvn/xen-3.0/xen-3.0-3.0.2+hg9651/linux-2.6.16-xen/arch/xen/Makefile: No
such file or directory
make[1]: *** No rule to make target
`/home/mrvn/xen-3.0/xen-3.0-3.0.2+hg9651/linux-2.6.16-xen/arch/xen/Makefile'.
Stop.
Specifying a subarch of xen seems to set the architecture to xen as
well for some reason.
2) make-kpkg --arch amd64 --subarch xen ...
...
cp arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage
/home/mrvn/xen-3.0/xen-3.0-3.0.2+hg9651/linux-2.6.16-xen/debian/linux-xen0-2.6.16-xen-xen-1//boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16-xen-xen-1
cp: cannot stat `arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage': No such file or directory
make: *** [install/linux-xen0-2.6.16-xen-xen-1] Error 1
The reason for this is a failure to detect xen. The .config option
differs on amd64:
/usr/share/kernel-package/ruleset/arches/amd64.mk:
- ifeq ($(strip $(CONFIG_X86_XEN)),)
+ ifeq ($(strip $(CONFIG_X86_64_XEN)),)
Fixing that I get a deb with:
$ file boot/*
boot/System.map-xen0-2.6.16-xen-xen-1: ASCII text
boot/config-xen0-2.6.16-xen-xen-1: ASCII English text
boot/xen0-linux-2.6.16-xen-xen-1: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, AMD x86-64,
version 1 (SYSV), statically linked, not stripped
I haven't booted it yet but it looks promising.
