Yaraslau Furman 7e8818327b Separate defconfig creation from re-use logic 
At the moment when _use_current=y is passed to the package
compilation - the script still re-creates the defconfig which can
cause errors and cause the menuconfig to show up outta nowhere.

Fix this by bypassing the logic completely, I think that
anyone using the _use_current=y knows what they're doing
so we should be fine.

README.md

linux-clear

This repository contains the PKGBUILD file required for building the linux-clear and linux-clear-headers packages. You can find this package on the AUR.

How to build and install

Read this Arch Linux Wiki article.

Updates

This package is usually updated 0-3 days after a kernel release. If a security-relevant update is available the package will be updated as soon as possible.

Environment variables

The PKGBUILD file supports customization via environment variables. Here's a list of all of them:

  • _makemenuconfig: Invokes make menuconfig (ncurses-based default configuration menu) before compilation starts
  • _makenconfig: Invokes make nconfig (ncurses-based nicer configuration menu) before compilation starts
  • _makexconfig: Invokes make xconfig (X11-based GUI configuration menu) before compilation starts
  • _use_current: Will use the configuration of the running kernel, if the running kernel is compiled with IKCONFIG_PROC
  • _copyfinalconfig: Copies the final kernel configuration into the repository root as kconfig-new before compilation starts
  • _localmodcfg: Only compiles modules found in modprobed-db's database (which decreases compilation time and kernel size)
  • _use_llvm_lto: Compiles the kernel with LLVM instead of GCC. Should work, if not open an issue
  • _subarch: Specifies the sub architecture to compile for (see the PKGBUILD file for a list of all subarches). Default is 41 (Generic x86-64), which is compatible with all amd64 processors. Must be a number
  • _debug: Force enables debug options when set to y, force disables debug options when set to n or uses the config defaults when unset

All of these variables just need to be set for them to apply, except for _subarch and _debug. See their descriptions for more information.

GPG errors

If makepkg complains about invalid PGP keys, try running this command:

gpg --locate-keys torvalds@kernel.org gregkh@kernel.org sashal@kernel.org benhh@debian.org

This command only needs to be executed once.

Issue handling

Please only submit issues if they aren't bug reports about the package or help requests. Please keep them on the AUR only. This prevents unnecessary signups.

License

This package does not yet have a license as the original repository (before me becoming it's maintainer) did not have one yet. I have contacted metak (the previous maintainer) to negotiate a license.

Build tool

If you want a dead simple way to compile this package, you can try out my build tool. It includes a few no nonsense changes to the kernel configuration and allows you to configure the PKGBUILD in a simple manner to decrease build time. If you don't want that, using makepkg as-is works fine too.
