Hi. Since the package became an orphan, I adopted it to continue what I actively maintain on https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/linux-mainline-git, now on this AUR package.

The build script and config file will be up-to-date with Arch's official Linux package unless an update is required to be functional.

But I intentionally removed the documentation package because it consumes too much building time.

This package supports certain customization if compiled by the user. Check for the README file inside the package repo, or the .INSTALL message after package installation to learn how.

If you follow these instructions: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bisecting_bugs_with_Git and do makepkg -o then checkout an older version somehow and run makepkg -e there are errors as "version" is now wrong. In _package ():

  cd $_srcname
  make -s kernelrelease > version   <--- added
  local kernver="$(<version)"

this avoided those errors. (Only tested that on one build mind you.) Presumably the wiki info predates this commit about a year ago: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/PKGBUILD?h=linux-git&id=e7e35802193bf14e094a5c12e7748c600ce9ea80

Kernel 5.10.0-rc7 can be build if you revert 1 commit; this is build issue upstream (see linux-next-git package comments).

git revert 3351b16af494 --no-edit

After the build of 5.10.0-rc7 and rebooting my system (AMD Renoir 4800U), it hangs with a black screen.

To fix this I had to use my running kernel config, which I found in /proc/config.gz

Could it be that the config in this package is not in line with the normal 'linux' package (outdated?) and needs fixing?

Thanks all!

I built 5.10rc6 fine and I am booted on Linux 5.10.0-rc6-1-git.

Used the config from /proc/config.gz

Also skipped making docs as I was getting Latex errors of some sort.

yay linux-git --getpkgbuild --force
cd linux-git
N=$(($(nproc)*2))
RC=5.10rc6

# remove html docs
sed -i -e 's/\"\$pkgbase-docs\"//' PKGBUILD
sed -i -e 's/rm\ -r\ \"\$builddir\/Documentation\"//' PKGBUILD
sed -i -e 's/make\ htmldocs//' PKGBUILD
sed -i -e 's/make\ /make\ -j'${N}'\ /g' PKGBUILD
sed -i -e 's/^pkgver\=.*/pkgver\='${RC}'/' PKGBUILD

# use old config
zcat /proc/config.gz > config

makepkg -si

@iamazat & @jonathanio thank you for that amazing tip. I've massively increased the job, having lived in slow lane for over a year now. Have added loglevel, will let you know. Also I moved the markdown to a gist as it was bloating this comments section. Will test higher rc, thanks @sandy8925, and will post logs, brb!

jonathanio commented on 2020-11-30 12:37 (UTC)

@iamazat @sickcodes if you're using makepkg, you can set MAKEFLAGS in your /etc/makepkg.conf (along with any other relevant flags you want) and it will apply to all builds, not just the current build or checkout! :)

@sickcodes, further to @sandy8925, look for the following at the end of your build:

==> Finished making: linux-git 5.10rc6.r0.gb65054597872-1 (Mon 30 Nov 2020 06:45:15 GMT)

This tells you what your true build version is, as the version will automatically update to the latest commit on the master branch every time it is built.

jonathanio commented on 2020-11-30 12:31 (UTC)

@sickcodes I'd suggest adding loglevel to your kernel parameters and setting it to 4 or above. I think the default is 3 IIRC. Probably 6 or 7 would be best.

Hopefully, that'll give you more information during the boot process as to what if failing, or pausing, and maybe why. I do test it on my own laptop, and it is capable of booting, while the current config is based on Arch Linux 5.9 kernel, with a few extra options set for the 5.10 release.

sandy8925 commented on 2020-11-30 12:30 (UTC)

@sickcodes - Sometimes failure to boot is due to upstream code having a bug. Try building a newer or older commit/RC and see if that helps. Usually they fix it up in a later RC and before stable release.

Super fast build: 

MAKEFLAGS=-j$(( $(getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN)*2 )) make

Any tips on getting this to boot?

It rc2 seems to hang on boot.

Closest I got was to the root recovery shell.

Tried all of these from rEFInd boot loader as well as super grub disk EFI USB boot:
