FWIW the kernel can be successfully built with both CONFIG_X86_KERNEL_IBT and CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF in the config like in the Arch kernel by applying this patch: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20230418214925.ay3jpf2zhw75kgmd@treble/

@gamezelda I noticed that, thanks for the report. scripts/setlocalversion was modified on mainline for v6.3. I just updated PKGBUILD to fix the compilation problem.

The build is failing at the beginning now due to some changes to setlocalversion. This is how linux-next-git fixed it:

@gamezelda thanks for the heads up. I updated PKGBUILD and config to match v6.2-arch1 and while at it, I used your suggestion to disable CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF on config.extra. I believe we can remove that once pahole package is updated.
@soloturn I'll look into the partial clone and see if there's something I can include in the build scripts.

As of 2023-02-21 20:00:00Z the build is broken with the default Arch packages and default config due to an upstream issue, with the following error after most of the build is done:
btf_encoder__encode: btf__dedup failed!
Current workarounds are to either:
-
Disable
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTFin the config, or -
Disable
CONFIG_X86_KERNEL_IBTin the config (note that this has security implications), or -
Apply this patch over the pahole package: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/SY4P282MB1084A0E31D4228DF89FC42639DA29@SY4P282MB1084.AUSP282.PROD.OUTLOOK.COM

we now have flags for the repo cloning which saves quite some bandwith, e.g.:
GITFLAGS="--depth=1" makepkg
GITFLAGS="--depth=1" paru -S linux-mainline
in case the repo supports partial clones, --filter=tree:0 would be an option as well. this then even updates the repo correctly as soon as this is merged:
https://gitlab.archlinux.org/pacman/pacman/-/merge_requests/53
i'd be glad if you could try out your use case and maybe put a comment into the merge request?

Hey @RealOrRandom. The localversion.* files are needed by the building stage because kernel building scripts will look for those files to set the kernel version in the binary (the version you see with e.g. 'uname -a'). There are 3 files created by the prepare() stage: localversion.10-pkgrel, localversion.20-pkgname, and version. But those 3 files aren't touched by the kernel git tree, which means after you ran prepare() once (e.g. using makepkg -o), you can git bisect, git checkout, git rebase, etc, and the 3 files will remain untouched. Although I'd suggest to run 'make kernelversion > version' before running 'makepkg -e'.

Hi, thanks for making a new -git package. Could you move
echo "-$pkgrel" > localversion.10-pkgrel
echo "${pkgbase#linux}" > localversion.20-pkgname
to the _package functions? This is needed when playing around in the source tree (e.g., checking out other versions) and then running makepkg -e. I did this change for bisecting a regression in the kernel.

While we do have another AUR package (linux-git) that follows Linux mainline too, unfortunately it does not update the build script and config file.

This package has moved to https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/linux-git
I've created this package to follow official Linux mainline from Linus Torvalds' repository. The build script and config file are going to be up-to-date with Arch's official Linux package, unless it's required an update to be functional. But I removed the documentation package on purpose because it consumes too much build time.
