[LU-469] Lustre .config should be rebased on RHEL 6.1 from current kernel

• Type: Improvement
• Resolution: Fixed
• Priority: Blocker
• Fix Version/s: Lustre 2.1.0
• Assignee: Yang Sheng
• Reporter: Richard Henwood (Inactive)

Description

Building Lustre from git/lustre-release on RHEL 6.1, the .config file provided (lustre/kernel_patches/kernel_configs/kernel-2.6.32-2.6-rhel6-x86_64.config) is based on 2.6.32-71.el6.x86_64.debug.

The current kernel is kernel-2.6.32-131 and we should rebase our .config on the version from that .config (attached).

Landed for Lustre 2.1

Hi, Richard, The issue is not only relate to .config file, also lbuild-rhel6 need some change to deal with the root cause. I have propose a patch and attach to gerrit shortly.

I have further information to add to this ticket: The purpose of this ticket is to get a change that allows building Lustre from source. I am maintaining the wiki page:

http://wiki.whamcloud.com/display/PUB/Walk-thru-+Build+Lustre+2.1+on+RHEL+6.1+from+Whamcloud+git

As it stands the step

make oldconfig || make menuconfig

prompts a user to choose kernel build options.

These prompts are undesirable and not not present if you are building against RHEL5 with the config file:

/build/lustre-release/lustre/kernel_patches/kernel_configs/kernel-2.6.18-2.6-rhel5-x86_64.config
