Adding

scripts/config --disable CONFIG_IMA_ARCH_POLICY

to myconfig does solve the "Failed to insert module 'nvidia': Key was rejected by service" problem.

Anyone who configured secure boot using sbctl and want to load dkms modules can try this solution.

This package have several variables to enable/disable features.

##
## The following variables can be customized at build time. Use env or export to change at your wish
##
##   Example: env _microarchitecture=98 use_numa=n use_tracers=n makepkg -sc
##
## Look inside 'choose-gcc-optimization.sh' to choose your microarchitecture
## Valid numbers between: 0 to 99
## Default is: 0 => generic
## Good option if your package is for one machine: 98 (Intel native) or 99 (AMD native)
if [ -z ${_microarchitecture+x} ]; then
  _microarchitecture=0
fi

## Disable NUMA since most users do not have multiple processors. Breaks CUDA/NvEnc.
## Archlinux and Xanmod enable it by default.
## Set variable "use_numa" to: n to disable (possibly increase performance)
##                             y to enable  (stock default)
if [ -z ${use_numa+x} ]; then
  use_numa=y
fi

## Since upstream disabled CONFIG_STACK_TRACER (limits debugging and analyzing of the kernel)
## you can enable them setting this option. Caution, because they have an impact in performance.
## Stock Archlinux has this enabled. 
## Set variable "use_tracers" to: n to disable (possibly increase performance, XanMod default)
##                                y to enable  (Archlinux default)
if [ -z ${use_tracers+x} ]; then
  use_tracers=n
fi

# Unique compiler supported upstream is GCC
## Choose between GCC and CLANG config (default is GCC)
## Use the environment variable "_compiler=clang"
if [ "${_compiler}" = "clang" ]; then
  _compiler_flags="CC=clang HOSTCC=clang LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1"
fi

# Choose between the 4 main configs for stable branch. Default x86-64-v1 which use CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU2:
# Possible values: config_x86-64-v1 (default) / config_x86-64-v2 / config_x86-64-v3 / config_x86-64-v4
# This will be overwritten by selecting any option in microarchitecture script
# Source files: https://github.com/xanmod/linux/tree/5.17/CONFIGS/xanmod/gcc
if [ -z ${_config+x} ]; then
  _config=config_x86-64-v1
fi

# Compress modules with ZSTD (to save disk space)
if [ -z ${_compress_modules+x} ]; then
  _compress_modules=n
fi

# Compile ONLY used modules to VASTLY reduce the number of modules built
# and the build time.
#
# To keep track of which modules are needed for your specific system/hardware,
# give module_db script a try: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/modprobed-db
# This PKGBUILD read the database kept if it exists
#
# More at this wiki page ---> https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Modprobed-db
if [ -z ${_localmodcfg} ]; then
  _localmodcfg=n
fi

# Tweak kernel options prior to a build via nconfig
if [ -z ${_makenconfig} ]; then
  _makenconfig=n
fi

Personally I'm running now xanmod kernel compiled with this:

env _microarchitecture=98 use_tracers=n use_numa=n _localmodcfg=y _compress_modules=y makepkg -sic

Also, you can now create the file myconfig in your local repo to build this package with a custom config or use ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/linux-xanmod/myconfig. This file can be a full kernel config or be a script with several entries to add/remove options (you have several examples in PKGBUILD by using scripts/config):

Code involved:

  for _myconfig in "${SRCDEST}/myconfig" "${HOME}/.config/linux-xanmod/myconfig" "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/linux-xanmod/myconfig" ; do
    if [ -f "${_myconfig}" ] && [ "$(wc -l <"${_myconfig}")" -gt "0" ]; then
      if grep -q 'scripts/config' "${_myconfig}"; then
        # myconfig is a partial file. Executing as a script
        msg2 "Applying myconfig..."
        bash -x "${_myconfig}"
      else
        # myconfig is a full config file. Replacing default .config
        msg2 "Using user CUSTOM config..."
        cp -f "${_myconfig}" .config
      fi
      echo
      break
    fi
  done

Every time I build the package, make localmodconfig always prompt me something like this: .. AMD 8111 GPIO driver (GPIO_AMD8111) [N/m/y/?] ... is there a way to disable it? I don't use any of the driver prompted.

@vincent thanks for the advice. Added in 781eefb2ce30

figue commented on 2021-04-27 19:01 (UTC)

@JoeSchr this bug is very old. If you want to apply the patch, include it in sources() array as xxxxxx.patch and it will be applied automatically.

vincent commented on 2021-04-27 17:28 (UTC)

CONFIG_MNATIVE has been split into CONFIG_MNATIVE_INTEL and CONFIG_MNATIVE_AMD, choose-gcc-optimization.sh should be adjusted accordingly.

JoeSchr commented on 2021-04-27 14:34 (UTC)

he, I love this kernel but I had some weird connectivity issues on wired network since using it.

Is this patch in: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=205047#c31

It seems the issue can be traced to that. Thanks

figue commented on 2021-04-19 07:39 (UTC)

@jtroyer can you post your MODULES array? It should be loaded.

jtroyer commented on 2021-04-18 21:13 (UTC)

The crc32c_generic module is not included in the initramfs, even though I've explicitly added it to the MODULES array in mkinitcpio.conf (and rebuilt). I originally thought this was due to modprobed-db but 1) I removed it, 2) it was in modprobed.db anyways, and 3) I wasn't using the _localmodcfg flag.

This issue prevents me from booting on btrfs.

cartesius commented on 2021-04-03 15:32 (UTC)

workaround works, thanks @figue

figue commented on 2021-04-02 16:01 (UTC) (edited on 2021-04-02 16:01 (UTC) by figue)

@alfzki yes, it's fine.

figue commented on 2021-04-02 11:48 (UTC)

It's an issue with the new "file 5.40-1" package. Downgrading to 5.39-1 fix it. For now I'll write the workaround.
