Package: linux-kbuild-2.6.32
Version: 2.6.32-1
Severity: important
Enabling CONFIG_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD in the kernel's configuration calls
for the addition of recordmcount.pl to the set of scripts to install (as
listed in scripts/Makefile, AFAICT); could you please do so?
As a workaround in the meantime you could extract recordmcount.pl from
the /script directory of /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.32.tar.bz2 (if you
installed the source package) and copy it to
/usr/src/linux-kbuild-2.6.32/scripts. Afterwards you can build your
kernel packages, at least it worked for me for the nvidia-kernel-source
package.
Don't know if the added file has to be removed by hand before upgrading
the linux-kbuild package in order not to entangle your package manager.
Regards
Ingo

Thanks, and sorry for the long silence. In
/usr/lib/linux-kbuild-3.2/scripts/Makefile.build I see:

No problem; truth be told, the bug hasn't affected me in a while (due to
changes in either the kernel's configuration or OpenAFS's build system,
I don't remember which). That said, I can confirm that your patch does
indeed add recordmcount.pl to linux-kbuild-3.5, thanks.

Most archs use the C-version of recordmcount nowadays. I don't know
about 3.2, but for new versions we'd need a binary and rewrite
Makefile.build IIRC.

The magic happens in the toplevel Makefile, which is not installed in
kbuild:

* genorig: Accept xz-compressed upstream tarballs and patches, and
generate an xz-compressed orig tarball, thanks to Sedat Dilek
* source: Enable xz-compression for debian directory tarball

Probably due to v2.6.38-rc1~2^2~57^2~2 (ftrace: Speed up recordmcount,
2010-10-28).
