Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: Fail the build early when no lz4 present
Date: Thu, 11 Oct 2018 00:23:33 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181010222333.17794-1-bp@alien8.de> (raw)
From: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de>
When building randconfigs, the build fails at kernel compression stage
due to missing lz4 on the system but CONFIG_KERNEL_LZ4 has been selected
by randconfig. The result looks somethins like this:
(cat arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux.bin arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux.relocs | lz4c -l -c1 stdin stdout && printf \334\141\301\001) > arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux.bin.lz4 || (rm -f arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux.bin.lz4 ; false)
/bin/sh: 1: lz4c: not found
make[2]: *** [arch/x86/boot/compressed/Makefile:143: arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux.bin.lz4] Error 1
make[1]: *** [arch/x86/boot/Makefile:112: arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux] Error 2
make: *** [arch/x86/Makefile:290: bzImage] Error 2
Fail the build much earlier by checking for lz4c presence before doing
anything else.
