Enable building of the devel RPM package from Kbuild

[PATCH 0/2] Enable building of the devel RPM package from Kbuild

Posted by Pratham Patel 2 weeks, 1 day ago

This addresses a minor nit where I want a `-devel` RPM package to be
built when I build a binary RPM package with either `binrpm-pkg`
or `rpm-pkg` target(s).

Pratham Patel (2):
  kbuild: allow toggling the `with_devel` RPM macro
  docs: kbuild: document KBUILD_RPM_WITH_DEVEL

Hmmm, when I execute

  $ make -skj"$(nproc)" ARCH=x86_64 O=build mrproper defconfig binrpm-pkg

I end up with

  $ ls -1 build/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64
  kernel-6.9.0_rc4_00031_g96fca68c4fbf-1.x86_64.rpm
  kernel-devel-6.9.0_rc4_00031_g96fca68c4fbf-1.x86_64.rpm
  kernel-headers-6.9.0_rc4_00031_g96fca68c4fbf-1.x86_64.rpm

so it seems like this is already happening?

Cheers,
Nathan

Ah sorry, that was a typo. I meant to say the following:
"This addresses a minor nit where I **don't** want a `-devel` RPM
package to be built when I build a binary RPM package with either
`binrpm-pkg` or `rpm-pkg` target(s)."

That is because on ARM systems where I just need to quickly test the
upstream defconfig, I don't really need the `-devel` package.

Also, I see that in a hurry, I did the opposite of what I wanted in the
patches. This went unnoticed since I had KBUILD_RPM_WITH_DEVEL=0 for me
during testing. Sorry about that!

I'll send a v2 fixing this stupid mistake.

Ah, understood! I am not sure you actually need a v2 though because I
think you can already accomplish what you are looking for by adding

  RPMOPTS='--without devel'

to your make command, at least that works for me. Commit 2a291fc315b6
("kbuild: rpm-pkg: introduce %{with_devel} switch to select devel
package") introduced this.

Cheers,
Nathan
