Fork of the Fedora kernel package to add fixes and new features.
Feel free to open an issue about it and I'll look into it to see if its worth while including.
Do note that:
- it must not negatively affect users more than they already are
- if it can be packaged externally, it will likely not be included
- it must be available under an open source license
- system stability and security must not be impacted in major ways
kernel-fsync started out as a fork of the Fedora kernel with the fsync patchset for wine included. The patches were lated rebranded as futex2 because of confusion, but the name was kept for the kernel.
The name may be changed in the future.
To build the kernel you need to manual the relevant kernel tarball from somewhere and put it into the SOURCES
directory.
From then out you can use the script located at TOOLS/build.sh
to run the rpmbuild
with some predefined values.
Building the kernel as it can then be done like this:
./TOOLS/build.sh -ba SPECS/kernel.spec
