I remember now why I never submitted this patch to ARK. I couldn't get the userspace RPMs for ELN to build and it's likely something wrong with the way that I'm building the kernel. Here's how I am building an ELN kernel: DIST='.eln' make dist-srpm IS_FEDORA=0 rpmbuild --define 'dist .eln' --rebuild --with=bpftool \ --with=tools --with=perf --with=selftests --without=up \ --without=kabidw_base --without=debug \ --without=ipaclones --without=debuginfo \ --without=cross_headers --without=pae \ redhat/rpm/SRPMS/*.src.rpm That won't actually build any RPMs. We are using similar flags for the RHEL 8 kernel. If I try to build it with just the three --without flags that you have above like so, then it gives a different error: $ DIST='.eln' make dist-srpm IS_FEDORA=0 $ rpmbuild --define 'dist .eln' --rebuild --without=up \ --without=debug --without=zfcpdump \ redhat/rpm/SRPMS/*.src.rpm RPM build errors: Empty %files file /home/masneyb/rpmbuild/BUILD/kernel-5.10.0-0.rc1.57.test/debugfiles.list Brian _______________________________________________ kernel mailing list -- kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to kernel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 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/kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
