| Subject | Debian Packaging for 5.15 LTS where to add extra header/common scripts/files |
| Message-ID | <NIfnj-2gNV-1@gated-at.bofh.it> |
Niltze [Hello] I have hacked an official 'Debian Packaging for 5.15.15-2 for backports' and wrapped it over an reiser4 -enhanced 5.15.220 LTS. During the task I added to debian/patches directory support for upstream RTW89 WiFi 6 module(s) and 'drm/amd/display: Avoid flooding unnecessary info messages' modified patch based on: < https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=290072065dffec1752f21c6bc7f7e5eca7aaf706 > The build completes nicely and I am using the reiser4 5.15.220 LTS kernel, testing it during daily use: < https://metztli.it/lts > When it came time to build VirtualBox 7.2.20 during my testing, the /usr/src/linux-headers-*-common/scripts/ package missed inclusion of pahole-version.sh pahole-flags.sh which, of course, are part of and under 5.15.220/linux/scripts directory. Question I have is, where in the Debian Packaging for x.y.z framework can I define the extra files missing from my current build? Any hints would be appreciated very much! -- Best Professional Regards. -- Jose R R http://metztli.it --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Download Metztli Reiser4: Debian Trixie w/ Linux 5.17.15-3 AMD64 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- feats ZSTD compression https://sf.net/projects/metztli-reiser4/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Official current Reiser4 resources: https://reiser4.wiki.kernel.org/

Never mind, issue is solved by modifying debian/rules.d/scripts/Makefile and specifying those missing files in my Debian Packaging for 5.15.220 LTS patch, again, as just elaborated at: < https://metztli.it/lts > -- Best Professional Regards. -- Jose R R http://metztli.it --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Download Metztli Reiser4: Debian Trixie w/ Linux 5.17.15-3 AMD64 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- feats ZSTD compression https://sf.net/projects/metztli-reiser4/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Official current Reiser4 resources: https://reiser4.wiki.kernel.org/

That's why I tagged you, Sr., you are the expert ;-) Notwithstanding, approximately one week + of daily use / testing development has not introduced anomalies, except for the dmesg flooding and missing pahole-*.sh files; issues which have been resolved with integrated patches into the Debian Packaging for 5.5.220 framework. > Has anyone even tried porting Reiser4/5 to newer kernels (5.17+)?

Apropos, looking at my annotations from a while back, as I was creating/modifying my hack of reiser4 for 5.15 LTS patch, I noticed that your reiser4 for 5.16 patch does not apply cleanly to 5.15 *because* 'memory folios' were introduced with commit 49f8275c7d9247cf1dd4440fc8162f784252c849 during the transition from 5.15 to 5.16, Ed, i.e., 'memory folios' were present *already* in 5.16. > >> >> Thanks, >> Edward. >> >>>> LTS.

And... lastly, if you want to 'give a spin', 'kick the tires', etc., of the reiser4 (SFRN 4.0.2) -enhanced 5.15.220 LTS iteration, possibly to provide constructive feedback[?], it has been made available now as a Debian Installer (d-i) ISO/USB netboot image (-lts label concatenated) suitable for either a virtual machine and/or bare metal installation [2]. I think Ian Murdock would add this 'milestone' to the history of Debian ;-) ... even if you do not hack any more reiser4 patches, Ed. >>> >>>>> LTS.

And thus the reasoning for the reiser4 5.15 LTS hack is to address the "Total Vulnerable CVE's in 5.17.15 : 7035" shortcomings "That's a non-trivial amount..." ;-) < https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2026/07/30/21 > > Has anyone even tried porting Reiser4/5 to newer kernels (5.17+)?
