Date: Mon, 11 Jan 2021 14:01:11 +0100 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>, stable@...r.kernel.org, Linus Torvalds <torvalds@...ux-foundation.org>, Sasha Levin <sashal@...nel.org>, Sedat Dilek <sedat.dilek@...il.com> Subject: [PATCH 5.4 07/92] depmod: handle the case of /sbin/depmod without /sbin in PATH From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@...ux-foundation.org> [ Upstream commit cedd1862be7e666be87ec824dabc6a2b05618f36 ] Commit 436e980e2ed5 ("kbuild: don't hardcode depmod path") stopped hard-coding the path of depmod, but in the process caused trouble for distributions that had that /sbin location, but didn't have it in the PATH (generally because /sbin is limited to the super-user path). Work around it for now by just adding /sbin to the end of PATH in the depmod.sh script.
