Hi Adrian, I am currently restricted to using the web client. As a first step I now uploaded the tar and the spec seperatly. The local build using rpmbuild -ba e1000e.spec works but obs gives me https://build.opensuse.org/package/live_build_log?arch=i586&package=e1000e&project=home%3Atef32%3Ae1000e&repository=openSUSE_11.3 "Booting from ROM... doing fast boot FATAL: Module kqemu not found. FATAL: Module ext2 not found." Are there missing some features in my spec file?

I have the impression that OBS does not expect uploads of SRPMs.

src.rpms are also a built result, so OBS expects the single source files (tar ball and .spec file) to be uploaded. However, there are tools to automate the unpack of srcrpms, either * osc importsrcpkg * add a URL in webui to a src.rpm, it will use the download_src_package source service. bye adrian

Is this correct?

Hi Adrian,

...

Are there missing some features in my spec file?

These are just bugs in our general initrd (just fixed in the appliance).

Thanks for this info! However, they are not FATAL and just ignored. So please do also :) Now I get another error when trying to create a KMP: + make -j -C /usr/src/linux M=/usr/src/packages/BUILD/e1000e-1.6.3/src make: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.34-12' ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid. include/generated/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are missing.

Martin,

I have a pretty simple KMP specfile which works for me.

The source and patches are kernel specific, but the specfile should be generic:

https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file?file=ext4dev.spec&package=ext4de v-snapshots&project=home%3Anext4&srcmd5=27686765b21f1b56480196f1c3a8a66c

Also, the package https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=sampledriver&project=home%3Aandavis%3Alinuxcon2011 should pretty much match the sample in http://www.novell.com/communities/node/9226/using-opensuse-build-service-cre... . HTH, Ann

Ann,

If you are maintaining that as an example, you should move the changelog out of the specfile and into a *.changes file. A submission to factory with it the way you have it would be rejected I believe.

Good point, but I have a few questions/comments: 1) This sample is intended target enterprise distros (like SLE and RHEL). Reasons: a) IMO, KMPs are of limited use unless there's an expectation of kABI stability across kernel updates. Enterprise distros (like SLE and RHEL) generally have kABI-stability policies; I'm not sure about other distros like openSUSE, Fedora, etc. Of course, the situation is improved now that many distros have symbol-granularity (rather than symset-granularity) kABI-matching at an rpm level. b) This sample will build and install fine on openSUSE. But it doesn't work on Fedora, because Fedora did not incorporate the standard KMP macros that we worked on in the LF Driver Backport workgroup. I'd be very happy to see folks in the Fedora community exert some pressure in this area... ;) 2) The whole *.changes thing has always confused me. Is this a cross-distro standard? What is the reason to have a *.changes file rather than just tracking the changes in the spec file? 3) Given the above notes, would it make sense to submit this to factory? I'm not opposed to it, I just haven't given it much thought. TIA, Ann

Inside of the spec file you increase the rpm database size on the installed system. So we need a stripped one inside of it while we don't want to loose the full change log in the .changes file.

Thanks for the link. I was worried that using a *.changes file instead of a %changelog wouldn't work when building rpms for non-SUSE distros. But I tested and the *.changes info gets into my RHEL rpms so I guess it's all good. :)
