I'm not getting the proper $KERNELRELEASE string after make rpm
 
Hello,

I've been at this for the last few hours trying to figure out where in the compilation process where $KERNELRELEASE gets a different value from CONFIG_LOCALVERSION or LOCALVERSION when it reaches "rpmbuild".

Code:
make clean
  CLEAN  .
  CLEAN  .tmp_versions
set -e; cd -P ..; ln -sf /mnt/wsrv/usr/local/src/linux-3.2.16 kernel-3.2.16_grsec.bomb.us
/bin/sh /mnt/wsrv/usr/local/src/linux-3.2.16/scripts/setlocalversion --save-scmversion
set -e; cd -P ..; tar -cz --exclude SCCS --exclude BitKeeper --exclude .svn --exclude CVS --exclude .pc --exclude .hg --exclude .git -f kernel-3.2.16_grsec.bomb.us.tar.
gz kernel-3.2.16_grsec.bomb.us/.
set -e; cd -P ..; rm kernel-3.2.16_grsec.bomb.us
rm -f /mnt/wsrv/usr/local/src/linux-3.2.16/.scmversion
set -e; \
/bin/sh /mnt/wsrv/usr/local/src/linux-3.2.16/scripts/mkversion > /mnt/wsrv/usr/local/src/linux-3.2.16/.tmp_version
set -e; \
mv -f /mnt/wsrv/usr/local/src/linux-3.2.16/.tmp_version /mnt/wsrv/usr/local/src/linux-3.2.16/.version

mv -f /mnt/wsrv/usr/local/src/linux-3.2.16/.tmp_version /mnt/wsrv/usr/local/src/linux-3.2.16/.version

+ cd kernel-3.2.16_grsecgrsec
When the compiling process is done, I'm looking for a resulting "kernel-3.2.16_grsec.bomb.us.x86_64.rpm", instead the result is "kernel-3.2.16_grsecgrsec". I've been going through the Makefile and I can seem to find the exact location where $KERNELRELEASE get's modified to a different string than expected. Any assistance in this issue would be helpful.

Best Regards

Any reason for not posting the .spec file and the command line you build the package with?

Hello
 
Hello,

Well, if I had known, I would have included the necessary information in my previous post. There were no particular reason the information was withheld.

Code:
make CC=/usr/bin/gcc-4.6 DISABLE_PAX_PLUGINS=y rpm
Note: The spec file is auto generated during compile time by $root/include/package/mkspec

Code:
Name: kernel
Summary: The Linux Kernel
Version: 3.2.16_grsecgrsec
Release: 2
License: GPL
Group: System Environment/Kernel
Vendor: The Linux Community
URL: http://www.kernel.org
Source: kernel-3.2.16_grsecgrsec.tar.gz
BuildRoot: %{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{PACKAGE_VERSION}-root
Provides:  kernel-3.2.16-grsecgrsec
%define __spec_install_post /usr/lib/rpm/brp-compress || :
%define debug_package %{nil}

%description
The Linux Kernel, the operating system core itself

%package headers
Summary: Header files for the Linux kernel for use by glibc
Group: Development/System
Obsoletes: kernel-headers
Provides: kernel-headers = %{version}
%description headers
Kernel-headers includes the C header files that specify the interface
between the Linux kernel and userspace libraries and programs.  The
header files define structures and constants that are needed for
building most standard programs and are also needed for rebuilding the
glibc package.

rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT

%dir /lib/modules

From what I could gather, the $KERNELRELEASE variable is modified somewhere in the compile process. The actual parameters passed to rpmbuild could be found in my previous post.

Hello,

YEAH!! After tirelessly spending 24 hours on this issue, I finally figured it out. Apparently $ROOT/include/package/mkspec never is executed while $ROOT/kernel.spec exists. Simply removing it and 'mkspec' will create a new spec with the proper values.

Best Regards

Well done figuring it out yourself!
