[OS-BUILD PATCHv2] [redhat] configs: Compress kernel with zstd cleanup
by Jeremy Linton (via Email Bridge) 13 Dec '24

13 Dec '24

From: Jeremy Linton <jlinton(a)redhat.com> [redhat] configs: Compress kernel with zstd cleanup Zstd compressed kernels consume less disk space and decompress faster than gziped ones. For example, kernel 6.12rc3 aarch64's on disk size is ~22% smaller and boots ~16% faster on a RPi4. Since this was already on for some x86 flavors, lets propogate the setting to all appropriate architectures and kernel flavors.

[OS-BUILD PATCH] redhat: Drop bpftool from kernel spec
by Viktor Malik (via Email Bridge) 25 Nov '24

25 Nov '24

From: Viktor Malik <vmalik(a)redhat.com> redhat: Drop bpftool from kernel spec We are going to build bpftool as a separate package. There are 2 main reasons for this change: (1) bpftool version is independent of the kernel and having it in the kernel spec causes all kinds of problems and (2) bpftool is loosely coupled to the libbpf library which is also packaged separately. Note that bpftool is still built during kernel build in 2 places: - Bootstrap bpftool for generating vmlinux.h which goes into kernel-devel. - As a part of kernel BPF selftests build. Here, we opt to use the bpftool from kernel sources rather than the system one because upstream selftests sometimes require unreleased bpftool features to build successfully.

[OS-BUILD PATCH] [redhat] New configs in drivers/perf

From: Fedora Kernel Team <kernel-team(a)fedoraproject.org> [redhat] New configs in drivers/perf Hi, As part of the ongoing rebase effort, the following configuration options need to be reviewed. As a reminder, the ARK configuration flow involves moving unreviewed configuration options from the pending directory to the ark directory. In the diff below, options are removed from the pending directory and added to the ark hierarchy. The final options that need to be ACKed are the files that are being added to the ark hierarchy. If the value for a file that is added should be changed, please reply with a better option.
