With the recent refactor, setting source: false in debian/config/defines
is no longer enough to disable the linux-source-$ver package build, as
dh_listpackages is used to determine what is built.
Do not add linux-source-$ver to d/control if it is disabled.
In unstable, linux-image-*-unsigned packages and any corresponding
metapackage updates tend to be available a few hours before the
corresponding signed packages. An automatic upgrade with aptitude (at
least) may then install the unsigned kernel where a signed kernel
was previously used, resulting in boot failure.
I gave the linux-image-*-unsigned packages a Provides relation to the
unsuffixed (i.e. signed) package name because I thought packages built
by module-assistant generally depended on the corresponding kernel
package. That may have been true once but doesn't appear to be so
now.
So the Provides field can be harmful and doesn't appear to be useful,
and should be removed.
The Debian signing service won't pay any attention to this, but it
sort of makes sense - you won't be able to build a source package
without dpkg-dev.
Fixes lintian error missing-dep-for-interpreter.
These packages don't contain binaries or libraries. The dependencies
on the corresponding shared library packages are specified directly,
not generated by dpkg-shlibdeps.
This fixes build-time warnings from dpkg-gencontrol.
- asciidoctor is only used to build the linux-perf package, so !nopython
- patchutils is only used to build the linux-source package, so
!pkg.linux.nosource
linux-perf wants to build a 32-bit program perf-read-vdso32 to enable
64-bit perf builds to read the vDSO for 32-bit tasks. This is now
worth doing for MIPS since it got a vDSO in Linux 4.4.
Ideally we should not require any special profile to be enabled for a
cross-build. (Unfortunately we still will because cross-compiler
and native compiler packages are named differently.)
For a native build, the build-dependency on libssl-dev is redundant
with the previous build-dependency on libssl-dev:native, so this
shouldn't make any practical difference.
Change all the build-dependencies for perf to be qualified by the
architectures we actually build perf for, except where they are
already arch-qualified.
Closes: #908519
Merge the configuration and default-configuration directories,
using per-architecture overrides in package-list.
This requires a newer version of kernel-wedge to support
Depends_<arch> properly.
The only immediate change to debian/control is to remove the
different description for nic-modules on sparc64.

Merge tag 'debian/4.17.6-1'
Release linux (4.17.6-1).
- Drop patches for ABI maintenance or that are already upstream
- Drop ABI reference files
- Introduce linux-bootwrapper-<abiname> package containing boot wrapper
tools for the host architecture
- linux-image: Install symlinks to boot wrapper tools instead of the
native tools built by kbuild
In Linux 4.18, various compiler version and feature tests are invoked
via kconfig rather than via kbuild. This means that we generally
cannot generate kconfig files for foreign architectures.
Move the config files to a new linux-config-<version> package which is
arch-dependent (and also M-A: same).
Make linux-config-<version> and linux-source-<version> recommend each
other.
We generate all config files when building linux-source-<version>,
and this requires running kconfig. kconfig is now built using
bison and flex instead of requiring their output to be already
included in the source tree.
Add a new "pkg.linux.nosource" to let users disable building the
linux-source-* package, and allow to set "source: false" to modify
the default behaviour when no rofile is used.
When doing development builds this can save up to 15 minutes of build
time, especially on IO-strapped build workers.
Fully disable building and installing any documentation when the nodoc
build-profile is used.
Among other things this will help reducing build times when doing
development builds, especially on IO-limited build workers.
We don't want to include "-4.9" in them twice. Add a "source_basename"
template variable that excludes any version suffix in the source package
name.
(cherry picked from commit f3c51efdd6e9d0ce32ee5a0f998fdcda930a715c)
For master, nothing is immediately broken without this. Also we have
no longer build a linux-manual package. Change the changelog text
accordingly.
We already had support for disabling the tools build, used by
src:linux-grsec. However in this case, where we're using a different
based version to src:linux, we do still need to build the versioned
tools packages (linux-kbuild-4.9 and linux-perf-4.9). Split the
control template, config setting and rules accordingly.
(cherry picked from commit cb62c945f27ddee476631fa85c6aa67e50ed3bee)
libelf-dev is needed to build objtool when CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION
and CONFIG_UNWINDER_ORC are enabled, which is currently the case.
Do not mark it as !nopython !pkg.linux.notools otherwise the build
will fail in a minimal chroot (pbuilder/etc).
In case we ever have another bug fix where we want to force rebuilding
out-of-tree modules (like for the addition of retpoline), we should
ensure that they are built using an updated linux-kbuild.
Since linux-kbuild packages are built from src:linux, we can simply
require at least the same source version. (linux-headers and
linux-kbuild can come from different architectures so we must not use
binary:Version here.)
