NAME
kpatch-build - build script
SYNOPSIS
kpatch-build [options] <patch file>
DESCRIPTION
This script takes a patch based on the version of the kernel currently running and creates a kernel module that will replace modified functions in the kernel such that the patched code takes effect.
OPTIONS
-h|--help Show this help message -a|--archversion Specify the kernel arch version -r|--sourcerpm Specify kernel source RPM -s|--sourcedir Specify kernel source directory -c|--config Specify kernel config file -v|--vmlinux Specify original vmlinux -j|--jobs Specify the number of make jobs -t|--target Specify custom kernel build targets -n|--name Specify the name of the kpatch module -o|--output Specify output folder -d|--debug Keep scratch files in /tmp (can be specified multiple times) --oot-module Enable patching out-of-tree module, specify current version of module --oot-module-src Specify out-of-tree module source directory -R|--non-replace Disable replace flag of KLP (replace is on by default) --skip-cleanup Skip post-build cleanup --skip-compiler-check Skips check that ensures that the system compiler version and the compiler version that built the kernel match. Skipping this check is not recommended, but is useful if the exact compiler version is not available or is not easily installed. Use only when confident that the two versions of compiler output identical objects for a given target. Otherwise, use of this option might result in unexpected changed objects being detected.
