Hi, I notice a regression report on Bugzilla [1]. Quoting from it: > I'm on AMD64 with Debian testing (trixie), where I build my own kernels (with CONFIG_MODULES unset) using "make bindeb-pkg". The build proceeds through 99% of the process, but fails here: > > Kernel: arch/x86/boot/bzImage is ready (#2) > make -f ./Makefile ARCH=x86 KERNELRELEASE=6.4.4-i5 intdeb-pkg > sh ./scripts/package/builddeb > *** > *** The present kernel configuration has modules disabled. > *** To use the module feature, please run "make menuconfig" etc. > *** to enable CONFIG_MODULES. > *** > make[5]: *** [Makefile:1969: modules_install] Error 1 > make[4]: *** [scripts/Makefile.package:150: intdeb-pkg] Error 2 > make[3]: *** [Makefile:1657: intdeb-pkg] Error 2 > make[2]: *** [debian/rules:16: binary-arch] Error 2 > dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules binary subprocess returned exit status 2 > make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.package:139: bindeb-pkg] Error 2 > make: *** [Makefile:1657: bindeb-pkg] Error 2 > > 6.3.13 contained the same error, but I "fixed" that by moving to 6.4.3. But alas, 6.4.4 now has the same issue. > > I worked around the issue by changing "exit 1" to "exit 0" in the main Makefile (at "modules module_install", per the attached patch), but I don't know if this is a true fix or something that simply happens to work for my particular configuration. See Bugzilla for the full thread and attached patch that ignores the error. Josh: It looks like this regression is caused by a commit of yours (and also 1240dabe8d58b4). Would you like to take a look on it? Anyway, I'm adding this regression to be tracked by regzbot: #regzbot introduced: 4243afdb932677 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217689 #regzbot title: always doing modules_install breaks CONFIG_MODULES=n builds Thanks.
