I am trying to create a patched kernel for Fedora 23. I have downloaded from the Kernel archive the 4.5.1 source files. I can compile to rpm, install and run from this source. When I attempt to patch I fail at different steps based on which ACS patch I try.<br>
<br>
I compile by the following steps.<br>
make menuconfig<br>
make rpm<br>
<br>
To patch:<br>
make menuconfig<br>
cat pathtofile/acs_patch.diff | patch -p1<br>
make rpm<br>
<br>
Depending on the ACS patch, sometimes it fails at the cat step, sometimes it fails at the make rpm step.<br>
<br>
First, is what I am doing on the right track? If not is there a guide to do this? If I am on the right track, which ACS patch should I use, and if I run into issues what should I do or look for? I can't seem to locate logs for when it fails to help me trouble shoot what is wrong.<br></blockquote></div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div>Why do you cat the patch?<div>You might not have the right version for your kernel, either try the one from the linux-vfio repo from arch,</div><div>or just put the modifications in the correct file by hand and be done with it.</div><div>The patch command should return you something if you had errors during the patching. </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex"><div class=""><div class="h5"><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex">
