From: Justin Forbes on gitlab.com https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-ark/-/issues/42#note_555069659 The reason that this is set is because there is overhead in running debug builds. We have a whole lot of users willing to run a rawhide kernel for day to day, and the testing we get from that is very valuable. The agreement we have, is the first build for each new rcX is built as a release kernel. That is also copied off to the rawhide no- debug repository so we have a secure-boot signed kernel there which is not a debug kernel. The debug builds in between are much more useful for various testing mechanisms, and for users who are more interested in test environments than running their desktop off of it, though we do have a few users who will run their desktops on those builds as well. Making the in between releases debug only kind of forces some testing that would not otherwise occur, and leads to frequent finds of new lockdep issue, etc. The 'make debug' and 'make release' commands mentioned in the spec file should be changed, they are a relic from the pre-kernel-ark days when I did have to run 'make release' for every rcX build and 'make debug' to get back to snapshots. Those commands would just flip the bit in the spec file and bumpspec for the changelog. _______________________________________________ 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 Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
