Ok, I think I have a better understanding of this entire process: goal is to conduct bisections until I find the kernel version that resolves my bug and is closest to my current version. Git does all of the bisections, but I have to build and manually test the kernel version it gives me. When I find the correct version, build and use that kernel.
So, I did the following: git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git && cd linux git checkout v3.14-rc2 git bisect start git bisect good v3.13 (this is the only version available) git bisect bad v3.14-rc2 I then got this: [09da8dfa98682d871987145ed11e3232accac860] Merge tag 'pm+acpi-3.14-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm However, I cannot build/make the kernel. I used the following commands (taken from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/GitKernelBuild): cp /boot/config-`uname -r` .config yes '' | make oldconfig make clean make -j `getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN` deb-pkg LOCALVERSION=-custom And this is the end result: Setup is 16960 bytes (padded to 17408 bytes). System is 5634 kB CRC 96111e33 Kernel: arch/x86/boot/bzImage is ready (#1) ERROR: "__clk_get_hw" [drivers/clk/clk-max77686.ko] undefined! make[3]: *** [__modpost] Error 1 make[2]: *** [modules] Error 2 make[1]: *** [deb-pkg] Error 2 make: *** [deb-pkg] Error 2 There were no .deb files located in the directory above.
