From: Bruce Ashfield <bruce.ashfield@gmail.com>

During testing of the v6.4 reference kernel, it was noticed that
on-target modules no longer matched the magic value of the running
kernel.

This was due to a different localversion in the cross built kernel
and the scripts / resources created on target.

This was due to changes in the setlocalversion script introduced
in the v6.3 series.

The .scmversion file is no longer used (or packaged) to inhibit
the addition of a "+" (through querying of the git status of the
kernel) or the setting of a local version.

We recently introduced the KERNEL_LOCALVERSION variable to allow
recipes to place a value in .scmversion, so we extend the use of
that variable to kernel-arch.bbclass and use it to set the
exported variable LOCALVERSION.

We must do it at the kernel-arch level, as the variable must be
exported in any kernel build to ensure that setlocalversion always
correctly sets the localversion.

With this patch in place we are seeing a breakage on our kernel builds. 
This patch was cherry picked from master, but the next patch on this 
file in master removes the LOCALVERSION setting...

https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/meta/classes-recipe/kernel-arch.bbclass?h=master-next&id=b378eec156998eea55ba61e59103cb34fab0d07c


There is a disconnect here.  Why did we change kirkstone, a stable LTS 
version with a partial patch series based on master?

The original kirkstone backport request for this patch was sent to the
list for review on February 9.

There were no comments or objections, so I added it to the patch test
queue.  No issues were encountered on the autobuilder, so I sent this
patch (along with the rest of the patch queue) to the list for a
second review opportunity on February 12.  Once again there were no
comments or objections, so it was merged today February 15.

I follow this process because I'm not smart enough, nor do I have time
enough to thoroughly research all implications of every patch.  I rely
on autobuilder testing and community review to minimize breakage.

This normally works quite well, but this time it didn't.  I'll revert
this patch and if someone would like to resubmit a proper series to
deal with the issue it is trying to fix I will consider it and run it
through the same process.

I can appreciate that.  My comment was more for the person who sent the 
patch in the first place.  You are doing a great job.  I will try and 
pay attention for a replacement patch coming in and review as well.

I'm sorry about that. I need to use a 6.6 kernel on kirkstone, and this
patch fixed my usecase. It looked like a simple bugfix, and I was not
aware that there was a later fix for this change.

Is there any way I can reproduce the error you saw Ryan?

And would it make sense to add an automated test for this usecase?

I'll test my usecase with both patches backported and re-submit.

/Andreas

PS: This is my first submission to oe-core, so I'm just starting to
learn. I have no idea what or how the autobuilder tests, but I'm
willing to learn.

I've now looked into it and can make it work in my setup by backporting
these three commits from master:

  kernel.bbclass: introduce KERNEL_LOCALVERSION
 
https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/?h=master-next&id=229435a52f36ddec5f85fb6d5ccd42044b688397

  kernel: fix localversion in v6.3+
 
https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/?h=master-next&id=765b13b7305c8d2f222cfc66d77c02e6a088c691

  kernel: make LOCALVERSION consistent between recipes
 
https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/?h=master-next&id=b378eec156998eea55ba61e59103cb34fab0d07c

The cherry-pick's apply cleanly without any conflicts.

Would they be appropriate for kirkstone? I'm wondering if there would
be any issue with backporting the KERNEL_LOCALVERSION variable
specifically.

If I hear nothing before the middle of next week, I'll submit the patch
series (CC'ing you Ryan).

The meta-ti layer kernel recipes set KERNEL_LOCALVERSION.  With this 
change in place the modules directory was being name incorrectly which 
means that our boot testing failed.  For example, if we set:

KERNEL_LOCALVERSION="xxxx"

Then the directory was created:

/lib/modules-xxxx-xxxx

One too many xxxx in the name.

We never saw this issue on master in our testing because they patched 
the file and backed it out a few days later.
