Arch Linux User Repository

The PKGBUILD supports customization via environment variables. Here's a list of all of them:
_makemenuconfig: Invokes make menuconfig (default configuration menu) before compilation starts
_makenconfig: Invokes make nconfig (nicer configuration menu) before compilation starts
_makexconfig: Invokes make xconfig (GUI configuration menu) before compilation starts
_use_current: Will use the configuration of the running kernel, if the running kernel is compiled with IKCONFIG_PROC
_copyfinalconfig: Copies the final kernel configuration into the repository root as kconfig-new before compilation starts
_localmodcfg: Only compiles modules found in modprobed-db's database (which decreases compilation time and kernel size)
_use_llvm_lto: Compiles the kernel with LLVM instead of GCC. Should work, if not write a comment
_subarch: Specifies the sub architecture to compile for (see the PKGBUILD file for a list of all subarches). Default is 40 (Generic-x86-64), which is \compatible with all amd64 processors. Must be a number
_debug: Force enables debug options when set to y, force disables debug options when set to n or uses the config defaults when unset

All of these variables just need to be set for them to apply, except for _subarch and _debug.

If you want a dead simple way to compile this package, you can try out my build tool. It includes a few no nonsense changes to the kernel configuration and allows you to configure the PKGBUILD in a simple manner and decrease build time. And if you don't want that, using makepkg as-is works fine too.

Kernel has been updated and is now maintained again.

Thank you metak for creating this package in the first place.

Thanks @ltsdw. Do you know if I can durably set this when an update is available for this AUR package. Like positioning a hook with yay to automatically modify the kernel config before building it ?

@berturion try compiling the kernel with CONFIG_HIBERNATION set to Y.

Hi, there. Thank you very much for providing this package. It seems that hibernation is disabled by default on clear linux OS. And, using this AUR package, in fact, I can't get it to work. I ran mkinitcpio -p linux-clear command (resume is in th HOOKS). But it doesn't solve it. Is anyone managed to get hibernation work ? Is it even possible ?

@simona Hi. That is not in any way related to this package, but your third-party repo you're using. (chaotic-aur?)

help: errore: linux-clear-headers: signature from "Pedro Henrique Lara Campos root@pedrohlc.com" is invalid

@xuanruiqi Should be fixed now.

There's a problem with this version. If _subarch is set, then the line:

yes "$_subarch" | make oldconfig

will echo "_subarch" to the newly added interactive item:

Automatically load TTY Line Disciplines (LDISC_AUTOLOAD) [Y/n/?] (NEW)

and will cause infinite looping. The solution is of course unsetting _subarch temporarily.

@longspear Never experienced it myself.

Hi there, is anyone else experiencing a recurring "ping: no buffer space available" error with this particular Kernel?

@aorth If you're experiencing this issue only on linux-clear kernel it may be due to something clear specific? Dunno. Please link that lvm2 issue in your clearlinux-distribution github comment so that clear team can check it out if they haven't already.
