In an ideal world, this would be actually done by upstream Linux makefiles, i.e. they would have conditional hook to install that file, and add it as a dep on an appropriate install target (i.e. install- headers or whatnot).
As all distributions so far manually create snippets like we did as well, to install this file in their packages. Similarly other bits like these installed manually. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2013209 Title: expoline.o is packaged unconditionally for s390x Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in linux source package in Jammy: In Progress Status in linux source package in Kinetic: In Progress Status in linux source package in Lunar: In Progress Bug description: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1639924 enabled CONFIG_EXPOLINE_EXTERN for s390x in Jammy. While this works as expected on Jammy, it won't work on some derivatives of it: for example focal:hwe-5.15. On Focal, this config can't be enabled due to the GCC version it comes with. CONFIG_EXPOLINE_EXTERN requires >= 110200 while Focal comes with 90400.
