For 4.9.18 and 4.10.6 cherry-picked the VMBus leak fix from Linus' tree instead of char-misc. Signed-off-by: Rolf Neugebauer <rolf.neugebauer@docker.com>
Linux kernel builds, based on mostly-vanilla upstream Linux kernels.
See [../docs/kernel-patches.md] for how the local patches in patches-*
are maintained.
The build is mostly silent. A local build can be run via make. To view
the output use docker log -f <containerid>. The build creates multiple
containers, so multiple invocations may be necessary. To view the full build
output one may also invoke docker build . and then copy the build artefacts
from the image afterwards.
To build with various debug options enabled, build the kernel with
make DEBUG=1. The options enabled are listed in kernel_config.debug.
This allocates a significant amount of memory on boot and you may need to
adjust the kernel config on some systems. Specifically:
