Subject: [ptxdist] [PATCH] kernel: Call chmod modules.builtin.modinfo for v6.x only
Date: Fri, 27 Mar 2026 10:56:42 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260327095642.526947-1-ada@thorsis.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260113104815.6cfcc112@laptop-RR>
kernel.install stage fails for kernel versions before v5.2 (which
introduced modules.builtin.modinfo in the first place) like this:
DEPMOD 4.9.327-rt197-tt
depmod: WARNING: could not open modules.builtin.modinfo at [redacted]/platform-ncl/packages/linux-4.9.327/lib/modules/4.9.327-rt197-tt: No such file or directory
chmod: cannot access '[redacted]/platform-ncl/packages/linux-4.9.327/lib/modules/*/modules.builtin.modinfo': No such file or directory
make: *** [/usr/local/lib/ptxdist-2026.01.0/rules/kernel.make:287: [redacted]/platform-ncl/state/kernel.install] Error 1
ptxdist install kernel 3,75s user 1,63s system 101% cpu 5,308 total
The chmod fix is only necessary for kernel v6.18 which introduced the
faulty executable permissions. It was fixed for v6.19 with kernel commit
6d60354ea2f9 ("kbuild: Fix permissions of modules.builtin.modinfo").
