The PKGBUILD file supports a few different configurable build-time options:
  • _makenconfig Tweak kernel options prior to a build via nconfig. Pseudo-graphical menu based on ncurses. 1 2
  • _localmodcfg Only compile active modules to VASTLY reduce the number of modules built and the build time.
  • Please read arch wiki page for detailed explanation on how to use it.
  • _subarch Enable additional optimization/tuning for kernel builds by adding more micro-architectures options. Default is Generic-x86-64 number 36 if nothing else is selected.
  • PKGBUILD file with the list of architectures
  • graysky kernel_compiler_patch
  • _use_current Use the current kernel's .config file. Enabling this option will use the .config of the RUNNING kernel rather than the ARCH defaults. Useful when the package gets updated and you already went through the trouble of customizing your config options. NOT recommended when a new kernel is released, but again, convenient for package bumps.
  • _use_llvm_lto Compile the kernel with LLVM/Clang.
  • _debug Enable y some additional debug features present in arch kernel, but not in Clear upstream. n to force disable or leave empty to ignore.
Lastly, build the kernel by setting your environment variable env _subarch=40 _localmodcfg=y.

1. Binaries available in my repo: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/metakcahura:/kernel/Arch_Extra_standard/x86_64/
[home_metakcahura_kernel_Arch_Extra_standard]
SigLevel = Never
Server = http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/metakcahura:/kernel/Arch_Extra_standard/$arch
THIS IS OPTIONAL:
2. After install adjust your boot cmd line. ClearLinux uses clr-boot-manager which takes care of that. This is upstream default:
quiet console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8 cryptomgr.notests initcall_debug intel_iommu=igfx_off kvm-intel.nested=1 no_timer_check noreplace-smp page_alloc.shuffle=1 rcupdate.rcu_expedited=1 rootfstype=ext4,btrfs,xfs,f2fs tsc=reliable rw

@metak /usr/share/doc/systemd/README suggests to set CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED=n. As default, it turned on.

@zheiling Since it's also enabled in the default arch kernel it's not a problem. Done in 5.1.16-4 (clr 5.1.16-794).

Could you enable by default CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DEFERRED_TAKEOVER=y?

metak commented on 2019-07-04 22:26 (UTC)

@danhyal Patch is pulled from linux-ck and it's broken over there right now (can't set native this way), but it seems like it works just fine in this package. I'll enable it in next update and if there are some issues please report them.

amelia commented on 2019-07-04 21:04 (UTC)

Why don't you set the subarch to 27? since gcc will detect all the available instructions sets, it shouldn't cause any problems.

amelia commented on 2019-06-30 15:54 (UTC)

@metak I have tested it and the patch seems to be working as expected, thanks for including it.

metak commented on 2019-06-27 20:38 (UTC)

@danhyal Since this patch needs to be enabled with kernel command line option it shouldn't be a problem for those who have no use for it. Would you mind running some tests to see if it's working as it should?

amelia commented on 2019-06-27 16:39 (UTC)

@metak That would be useful for people that are doing hardware passthrough.

metak commented on 2019-06-26 19:29 (UTC)

@danhyal Not sure about adding more extra patches... if others would consider it useful I could add it as an option that can be enabled for testing or something?

amelia commented on 2019-06-26 18:22 (UTC)

Could you include the acs-overrides patch?
