Package: kernel-package Version: 10.036 Severity: normal
The step of 'make-kpkg clean' where it performs rm -f core `find . \( -name '*.orig' -o -name '*.rej' -o -name '*~' -o -name '*.bak' -o -name '#*#' -o -name '.*.orig' -o -name '.*.rej' -o -name '.SUMS' -o -size 0 \) -print` TAGS takes a very long time when the kernel build directory is a kernel git repository. The problem appears to be the last clause of the find, where it searches for size=0 files. This causes it to stat() every file in the directory, including all the git files. How long is very long? I'm not sure, as I've never had the patience to let it run to completion. At least 5 minutes (i'm sure it would run longer, but that is the longest I've every actually timed). The filesystem on this volume is reiserfs with tail packing enabled. Perhaps the .git directory could be special-cased out of the find? Or is the -size 0 clause actually needed at all? -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.16-rc6-dirty Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages kernel-package depends on: ii bcc [c-compiler] 0.16.14-1.2.0.1.pure64 16-bit x86 C compiler ii dpkg 1.13.16 package maintenance system for Deb ii dpkg-dev 1.13.16 package building tools for Debian ii file 4.15-2 Determines file type using "magic" ii gcc [c-compiler] 4:4.0.2-2 The GNU C compiler ii gcc-3.3 [c-compil 1:3.3.6-12 The GNU C compiler ii gcc-3.4 [c-compil 3.4.6-1 The GNU C compiler ii gcc-4.0 [c-compil 4.0.3-1 The GNU C compiler ii gettext 0.14.5-2 GNU Internationalization utilities ii make 3.80+3.81.rc1-1 The GNU version of the "make" util ii perl 5.8.8-3 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii po-debconf 0.9.2 manage translated Debconf template Versions of packages kernel-package recommends: ii bzip2 1.0.3-2 high-quality block-sorting file co ii libc6-dev [libc-dev] 2.3.6-3 GNU C Library: Development Librari -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
