[opensuse-kernel] Building and installing a patched openSUSE kernel
Hi, I am trying to develop a new HID module. This module requires a change to drivers/hid/hid-core.c, which is built-in to the kernel, so I can't get away with just loading my module. I have tried building a new kernel using osc - osc co openSUSE:Factory kernel-default - ( applied patches ) - osc build After building the installation fails since I don't have a matching kernel-devel: $ robert@rombert:/var/tmp/build-root> sudo rpm -Fvh /var/tmp/build-root/standard-x86_64/home/abuild/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/*.rpm error: Failed dependencies: kernel-devel = 4.11.4-2 is needed by kernel-default-devel-4.11.4-2.x86_64 There is no openSUSE:Factory/kernel-devel, so I am apparently stuck. My question is - how can I self-build an openSUSE kernel with my patch applied? I am reluctant to build the upstream kernel and install it since I'm not sure if it will overwrite an existing kernel which could cause trouble.

You need to build both kernel-default.spec (which you did) and kernel-source.spec (which will produce a kernel-devel sub-package). Just copy the rpms from the first build somewhere and run osc build kernel-source.spec in the same package directory.

Will do, thank you. Robert -- http://robert.muntea.nu/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner@opensuse.org
