![]() It was observed that the kernel embeds the path in the x86 boot artifacts. From https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13458: [ If you turn on the buildpaths QA test, or try a reproducible build, you discover that the kernel image contains build paths. $ strings bzImage-5.0.19-yocto-standard |grep tmp/ out of pgt_buf in /data/poky-tmp/reproducible/tmp/work-shared/qemux86-64/kernel-source/arch/x86/boot/compressed/kaslr_64.c!? But what's this in the top-level Makefile: $ git grep prefix-map Makefile:KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(call cc-option,-fmacro-prefix-map=$(srctree)/=) So the __FILE__ shouldn't be using the full path. However arch/x86/boot/compressed/Makefile has this: KBUILD_CFLAGS := -m$(BITS) -O2 So that clears KBUILD_FLAGS, removing the -fmacro-prefix-map option. ] Other architectures do not clear the flags, but instead prune before adding boot or specific options. There's no obvious reason why x86 isn't doing the same thing (pruning vs clearing) and no build or boot issues have been observed. So we make x86 can do the same thing, and we no longer have embedded paths. Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield <bruce.ashfield@gmail.com> |

Linux kernel
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use make htmldocs
or
make pdfdocs
. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
