git - Linux最新稳定编译: cannot represent change to vmlinux-gdb. py:

Question

问题:

• 20 年来:
  • 我最后写了 >1K 的 C 代码
  • 编译任何>10K 源代码行
• 我当前的发行版 (Ubuntu 16.04) 对 0cf3:e300 Atheros Communications, Inc. WiFi 驱动程序的支持非常糟糕:8-12Mbps 是我得到的最好的。

我对内核版本优先级的了解:

1. 使用您自己的发行版内核(毫无疑问:太慢了)
2. 使用最新的stable kernel
3. 使用最新的 LTS 内核

我尝试过的:

git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git
git checkout -b stable v5.1.2
cp /boot/config-`uname -r` .config
yes '' | make oldconfig
make -j `getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN\' deb-pkg LOCALVERSION=-fab

这给了我以下错误:

dpkg-source: error: cannot represent change to vmlinux-gdb.py:
dpkg-source: error:   new version is symlink to /home/fab-user/Documents/Source/linux/scripts/gdb/vmlinux-gdb.py
dpkg-source: error:   old version is nonexistent

在以下完整输出中:

所以我最后做了:

git checkout -b v4.19.38 v4.19.38

这给我提供了高达 10MB/S 而不是我的发行版标准内核的 12Mbps，并且工作得很好，但如果我想保持 WiFi 驱动程序的全速，我需要每 24 小时重新启动我的机器。

问题:

我注定要留在 4.19.38 吗？
有没有办法让 4.19.39-5.12 版本永久工作？

Answer 1

只需删除 vmlinux-pdb.py 符号链接(symbolic link)到 scripts/gdb/vmlinux-gdb.py 就解决了我的问题。

所以在内核源码的根目录下做

$ rm vmlinux-gdb.py
