Linux kernel for Debian
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Patches
|
||||
-------
|
||||
Debian applies small changes to the kernel source. These are split up into
|
||||
separated patches addressing individual problems. Each of the patch files
|
||||
contains a description and mentions the author. The patches can be found
|
||||
in the source package or at
|
||||
https://sources.debian.org/src/linux/<version>/debian/patches/
|
||||
(with the package version substituted).
|
||||
|
||||
Config Files
|
||||
------------
|
||||
The .config files used to build the various linux-image files are dynamically
|
||||
generated during the linux package build. See the source package for
|
||||
details. Each linux-image-* package provides the complete .config file that
|
||||
was used to generate it. This file is installed in /boot.
|
||||
|
||||
Scope of security support
|
||||
-------------------------
|
||||
Security support is provided not only for the binary builds, but also
|
||||
for the full source package, allowing for locally customized kernels.
|
||||
However, kernel options that are not enabled in official Debian builds are
|
||||
given a lower priority for security support. Options marked as BROKEN
|
||||
or EXPERIMENTAL are of very low priority, and should not be enabled in
|
||||
customized builds for a security-sensitive environment.
|
||||
|
||||
Building custom kernel binary packages
|
||||
--------------------------------------
|
||||
We recommend using the 'make deb-pkg' target provided by the upstream
|
||||
kernel source.
|
||||
|
||||
Rebuilding official binary packages
|
||||
-----------------------------------
|
||||
You can build specific kernel binary packages using the targets in
|
||||
debian/rules.gen, which have names of the form:
|
||||
binary-arch_<architecture>_<featureset>_<flavour>
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
make -f debian/rules.gen binary-arch_i386_none_686
|
||||
|
||||
Rebuilding Adaptec AIC7xxx/79xx firmware
|
||||
----------------------------------------
|
||||
You can rebuild the firmware for the Adaptec AIC7xxx/79xx SCSI Adapters. To
|
||||
do so you need to set AIC7XXX_BUILD_FIRMWARE/AIC79XX_BUILD_FIRMWARE config
|
||||
options. Note that this requires to have the development packages for
|
||||
Berkeley Database (libdb-dev) installed.
|
||||
|
||||
Non-free bits removed
|
||||

||||

|
||||
Changelog
|
||||
---------
|
||||
Older Debian changelog entries are no longer included in binary
|
||||
packages, but can be found in debian/changelog.old in the source
|
||||
package.
