[OS-BUILD PATCHv9 0/3] redhat/kernel.spec.template: Add global compression variables
by Prarit Bhargava (via Email Bridge) 26 Apr '23

26 Apr '23

From: Prarit Bhargava on gitlab.com Merge Request: https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-ark/-/merge_requests/2173 Most of the kernel and its packing is currently xz. There is one exception, KABI. Remove gzip and change the KABI symbol compression to xz. There are other compression algorithms that are becoming more popular. To prepare for this change, add a compression variable and compression file extension variable.

The kernel-ark os-build branch has been rebased
by Justin Forbes 24 Apr '23

24 Apr '23

Please rebase any pending MRs and repush. As we have done since 5.15, we have done this again for os-build, we expect to keep it up as a cadence with every upstream release. This means we will do it again when 6.4 releases, and again with 6.3... It is difficult to manage a regularly rebased tree, because any outstanding MR is invalidated and has to also be rebased. But not doing somewhat regular rebases can also be difficult in the spirit of the openness that Fedora is based upon. While there are plenty of ways to see which patches we carry compared to upstream, some of those patches are fairly old, and would not apply cleanly at all to a modern tree after several releases were merged in with them. As we have gotten into a flow of things with merge requests, we can get to the point of very few outstanding MRs towards the end of a release cycle, and that makes it an opportune time to rebase the tree. This also means that the patches we carry should be no more than 1 release out of date, making them easier to apply to various other trees. I do realize that this is a minor inconvenience every 2-3 months, but I believe the results are worth it. Thanks, Justin

[OS-BUILD PATCH] ark: enable wifi on aarch64
by Íñigo Huguet (via Email Bridge) 21 Apr '23

21 Apr '23

From: Íñigo Huguet <ihuguet(a)redhat.com> ark: enable wifi on aarch64 Enable wireless core and drivers for aarch64 in RHEL, needed for a lot of Edge hardware. We're enabling the same options and drivers that are enabled for x86_64, which was the only architecture where wifi was supported. CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS and CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT had values in rhel/generic that were unused, being overwritten in x86. The values to be used for all arches, both for RHEL and Fedora, are the same, so moving them to common/generic. Comparing what CONFIGs are enabled by default with CONFIG_WIRELESS and CONFIG_WLAN in x86_64 and aarch64, there are 2 CONFIGs that are aarch64 specific, and we can set them to "not set" for the moment: CONFIG_ATH10K_AHB <- configured to "not set" here CONFIG_PWRSEQ_SD8787 <- it was already configured to "not set" Suggested-by: Peter Robinson <pbrobinson(a)redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Íñigo Huguet <ihuguet(a)redhat.com> diff --git a/redhat/configs/fedora/generic/CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS b/redhat/configs/common/generic/CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS rename from redhat/configs/fedora/generic/CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS rename to redhat/configs/common/generic/CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS index blahblah..blahblah 100644 --- a/redhat/configs/fedora/generic/CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS +++ b/redhat/configs/common/generic/CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS diff --git a/redhat/configs/fedora/generic/CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT b/redhat/configs/common/generic/CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT rename from redhat/configs/fedora/generic/CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT rename to redhat/configs/common/generic/CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT index blahblah..blahblah 100644 --- a/redhat/configs/fedora/generic/CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT +++ b/redhat/configs/common/generic/CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT diff --git a/redhat/configs/rhel/generic/CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS b/redhat/configs/rhel/generic/CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS deleted file mode 100644 index blahblah..blahblah 0 --- a/redhat/configs/rhel/generic/CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS +++ /dev/null @@ -1 +0,0 @@ -# CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS is not set diff --git a/redhat/configs/rhel/generic/CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT b/redhat/configs/rhel/generic/CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT deleted file mode 100644 index blahblah..blahblah 0 --- a/redhat/configs/rhel/generic/CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT +++ /dev/null @@ -1 +0,0 @@ -CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT="minstrel" diff --git a/redhat/configs/rhel/generic/arm/CONFIG_ATH10K_AHB b/redhat/configs/rhel/generic/arm/CONFIG_ATH10K_AHB new file mode 100644 index blahblah..blahblah 100644 --- /dev/null +++ b/redhat/configs/rhel/generic/arm/CONFIG_ATH10K_AHB @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +# CONFIG_ATH10K_AHB is not set diff --git a/redhat/configs/rhel/generic/arm/aarch64/CONFIG_WIRELESS b/redhat/configs/rhel/generic/arm/aarch64/CONFIG_WIRELESS deleted file mode 100644 index blahblah..blahblah 0 --- a/redhat/configs/rhel/generic/arm/aarch64/CONFIG_WIRELESS +++ /dev/null @@ -1 +0,0 @@ -# CONFIG_WIRELESS is not set diff --git a/redhat/configs/rhel/generic/arm/aarch64/CONFIG_WLAN b/redhat/configs/rhel/generic/arm/aarch64/CONFIG_WLAN deleted file mode 100644 index blahblah..blahblah 0 --- a/redhat/configs/rhel/generic/arm/aarch64/CONFIG_WLAN +++ /dev/null @@ -1 +0,0 @@ -# CONFIG_WLAN is not set diff --git a/redhat/configs/rhel/generic/x86/CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS b/redhat/configs/rhel/generic/x86/CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS deleted file mode 100644 index blahblah..blahblah 0 --- a/redhat/configs/rhel/generic/x86/CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS +++ /dev/null @@ -1 +0,0 @@ -CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS=y diff --git a/redhat/configs/rhel/generic/x86/CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT b/redhat/configs/rhel/generic/x86/CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT deleted file mode 100644 index blahblah..blahblah 0 --- a/redhat/configs/rhel/generic/x86/CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT +++ /dev/null @@ -1 +0,0 @@ -CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT="minstrel_ht" -- https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-ark/-/merge_requests/2320

Hi all, Just a heads-up, I've built the following packages for Rawhide in the side tag f39-build-side-65890. And I plan to merge the side tag on Sunday. Feel free to let me know if there are concerns or objections. libtracefs-1.6.4-1 trace-cmd-3.1.6-1 libtracecmd-1.3.1-1 kernelshark-2.2.0-1 By the way, corresponding work on Fedora 38 haven't started yet.
