Prebuilt kmod for EL

Since there is kmodtool support for el7, it should be possible to build pre-built kmod there. I don't think everything is perfect: - There is no kABI tracking (if that means a thing for you). - The base directory isn't there when updating the kernel (kmod will be installed to /lib/modules/3.10.0-514.el7.x86_64 , but this directory will not exists if updating to 3.10.0-514.10.2.el7.x86_64). - There are probably the usual RFE for kmodtool/akmods. - Secure Boot can probably be worked on based on this. On a side note, it's questionable to have pre-built version for nvidia binary driver. At least we can discuss this. (specially as nvidia provides pre-built version for opensuse: http://http.download.nvidia.com/opensuse/leap/42.3/x86_64/nvidia-gfxG04-k...) If you are building a kmod for EL, I would suggest to use: %if 0%{?fedora} %global buildforkernels akmod %global debug_package %{nil} %endif So this would work for both el and fedora. Once that said, testers welcomed... -- - Nicolas (kwizart)
