Subject: [2.6.23-mm1] CONFIG_LOCALVERSION handling broken
Something seems to be amiss with CONFIG_LOCALVERSION handling.
I am routinely building with
CONFIG_LOCALVERSION="-testing"
CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO=y
My usual sequence of "make ; sudo make modules_install install"
has worked fine for all of 2.6.23{-rc?{,-mm?},}. For 2.6.23-mm1
it fails with:
ts@...on:~/kernel/linux-2.6.23-mm1-work> sudo make modules_install install
root's password:
INSTALL arch/i386/crypto/aes-i586.ko
[...]
INSTALL sound/usb/usx2y/snd-usb-usx2y.ko
if [ -r System.map -a -x /sbin/depmod ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System.map 2.6.23-mm1; fi
sh /home/ts/kernel/linux-2.6.23-mm1-work/arch/i386/boot/install.sh 2.6.23-mm1 arch/i386/boot/bzImage System.map "/boot"
Root device: /dev/system/root (mounted on / as ext3)
Module list: processor thermal ahci pata_marvell aic7xxx fan jbd ext3 dm_mod edd dm-mod dm-snapshot (xennet xenblk dm-mod dm-snapshot)
Kernel image: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.23-mm1
Initrd image: /boot/initrd-2.6.23-mm1
No modules found for kernel 2.6.23-mm1-testing
ts@...on:~/kernel/linux-2.6.23-mm1-work>
That is, both "make modules_install" and "make install" omit
the "-testing" suffix, "make modules_install" installing the
modules into /lib/modules/2.6.23-mm1 instead of
/lib/modules/2.6.23-mm1-testing, and "make install" passing
"2.6.23-mm1" without the "-testing" suffix to the install.sh
script, but mkinitrd suddenly rediscovers the real kernel
version string and consequently looks for modules in
/lib/modules/2.6.23-mm1-testing, so initrd creation fails.
Ideas?
