You will be more likely to get an authoritative answer to your question on the fedora-kernel mailing list. I build a custom kernel from the src.rpm using rpmbuild, and Justin, and others, have helped me with problems in the past, though the official policy is if you build a custom kernel, you are on your own. I don't build any out of tree drivers, so I have not dealt with your problem. I vaguely recall that Fedora doesn't allow out of tree drivers, so your question about the spec file ignoring them is reasonable. It is probably a workaround to get them to build in a custom kernel. I haven't patched the kernel for a while, and when I looked at the spec file, it was different than I remember. There have been several ways of patching, as the build process changed, and the spec file was enhanced. And it looks like it has changed again. There have been a lot of changes to the spec file over the past year as ARC has been implemented. The archives of the kernel mailing list show all the changes. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
