I think we should wait till there are a bunch of reviews/acks in upstream before merging this. Otherwise we end again having something in, which will never get pushed, like latency-nice as a good example. |

I'm okay with that. Do you still want to keep the patch around in base or leave it out as an extra patch for now? |

I think we can keep it for now for testing reasons. |

Yes, can be merged you need to undraft |
Add distributed ThinLTO build support for the Linux kernel. This new mode offers several advantages: (1) Increased flexibility in handling user-specified build options. (2) Improved user-friendliness for developers. (3) Greater convenience for integrating with objtool and livepatch. Note that "distributed" in this context refers to a term that differentiates in-process ThinLTO builds by invoking backend compilation through the linker, not necessarily building in distributed environments. Depends on dfd4c69f9f12f8fdd68e08cdba250e37cefc93ce so merge this when 6.15rc4 is released Link: https://lore.kernel.org/20250420010214.1963979-1-xur@google.com/ Signed-off-by: Eric Naim <dnaim@cachyos.org>

There was a problem hiding this comment.
