Proposal update
The package has been updated to 6.11.7 (clr 6.11.6-1477), and with that landlock support has been enabled the package source moved to https://git.staropensource.de/JeremyStarTM/linux-clear.

Information comment
This comment provides useful information about this package. Make sure to read it through, you won't regret it.

Repository URL
This package is hosted at sos!git. If you want to contribute to the package, you can do it here: https://git.staropensource.de/JeremyStarTM/aur-linux-clear

Updates
I usually publish updates 0-3 days after a kernel release, depending on how busy I am.
If I however get wind of security-relevant updates or any vulnerabilities I will try to update the kernel as soon as possible and write a comment about the vulnerability/update. So make sure to subscribe to this package's comment mailing list.

The PKGBUILD file supports customization via environment variables. Here's a list of all of them:
_makemenuconfig: Invokes make menuconfig (ncurses-based default configuration menu) before compilation starts
_makenconfig: Invokes make nconfig (ncurses-based nicer configuration menu) before compilation starts
_makexconfig: Invokes make xconfig (X11-based GUI configuration menu) before compilation starts
_use_current: Will use the configuration of the running kernel, if the running kernel is compiled with IKCONFIG_PROC
_copyfinalconfig: Copies the final kernel configuration into the repository root as kconfig-new before compilation starts
_localmodcfg: Only compiles modules found in modprobed-db's database (which decreases compilation time and kernel size)
_use_llvm_lto: Compiles the kernel with LLVM instead of GCC. Should work, if not write a comment
_subarch: Specifies the sub architecture to compile for (see the PKGBUILD file for a list of all subarches). Default is 40 (Generic-x86-64), which is compatible with all amd64 processors. Must be a number
_debug: Force enables debug options when set to y, force disables debug options when set to n or uses the config defaults when unset

All of these variables just need to be set for them to apply, except for _subarch and _debug. See their descriptions for more information.

GPG errors
If makepkg complains about invalid PGP keys, try running this command first: gpg --locate-keys torvalds@kernel.org gregkh@kernel.org sashal@kernel.org benh@debian.org. This command only needs to be executed once.

Issue handling
Please only submit issues in the package's repository if they aren't bug reports about the package or help requests. Please keep them to the AUR only. Tihs prevents unnecessary signups.

Build tool
If you want a dead simple way to compile this package, you can try out my build tool. It includes a few no nonsense changes to the kernel configuration and allows you to configure the PKGBUILD file in a simple manner and decrease build time. And if you don't want that, using makepkg as-is works fine too.

As all other kernels available in Arch Linux repo and AUR have hibernation, maybe the maintainer could change the config to enable it in this kernel too? What do you think @metak?

As for the ACPI bloc in the PKGBUILD, we could add this one:

    ### Set CONFIG_HIBERNATION to make hibernation possible
        msg2 "Make hibernation possible..."
        sed -i "s|# CONFIG_HIBERNATION is not set|CONFIG_HIBERNATION=y|g" ./.config

Or maybe there is a good reason for disabling hibernation but I don't get it.

EDIT: bad copy/paste

berturion commented on 2019-06-24 16:35 (UTC)

Ok thank you @ltsdw. I will think about a custom script to do that.

ltsdw commented on 2019-06-24 15:19 (UTC)

@berturion sadly I do not know how make this process automatically, so my suggestion is edit PKGBUILD (maybe download and edit everytime that this package is updated) to use your .config previously edit with the changes. Or even using sed to edit. Something like sed -i "s|# CONFIG_HIBERNATION is not set|CONFIG_HIBERNATION=y|g" PATH\ /TO\ /.CONFIG/.config. I think you could possibly write a script to change the PKGBUILD before building it when running yay, but I still don't now how write it. Sorry!

berturion commented on 2019-06-24 14:28 (UTC)

Thanks @ltsdw. Do you know if I can durably set this when an update is available for this AUR package. Like positioning a hook with yay to automatically modify the kernel config before building it ?

ltsdw commented on 2019-06-24 12:51 (UTC)

@berturion try compiling the kernel with CONFIG_HIBERNATION set to Y.

berturion commented on 2019-06-24 11:45 (UTC)

Hi, there. Thank you very much for providing this package. It seems that hibernation is disabled by default on clear linux OS. And, using this AUR package, in fact, I can't get it to work. I ran mkinitcpio -p linux-clear command (resume is in th HOOKS). But it doesn't solve it. Is anyone managed to get hibernation work ? Is it even possible ?

metak commented on 2019-06-08 13:33 (UTC)

@simona Hi. That is not in any way related to this package, but your third-party repo you're using. (chaotic-aur?)

help: errore: linux-clear-headers: signature from "Pedro Henrique Lara Campos root@pedrohlc.com" is invalid

metak commented on 2019-04-17 21:50 (UTC)

@xuanruiqi Should be fixed now.

There's a problem with this version. If _subarch is set, then the line:

yes "$_subarch" | make oldconfig

will echo "_subarch" to the newly added interactive item:

Automatically load TTY Line Disciplines (LDISC_AUTOLOAD) [Y/n/?] (NEW)

and will cause infinite looping. The solution is of course unsetting _subarch temporarily.
