Make kernel.org Rpm for Tumbleweed

Build Kernel Rpm for Tumbleweed

basically followed this guide: https://tutorialforlinux.com/2021/01/05/step-by-step-build-kernel-opensuse-easy-guide/

You need write access to /usr/src

sudo zypper ref && sudo zypper update
# sudo reboot
sudo zypper in -t pattern devel_basis
sudo zypper in bc openssl openssl-devel dwarves rpm-build libelf-devel elfutils-libelf-devel
# dl and unpack kernel from kernel.org or clone e.g. from git://anongit.freedesktop.org/drm-tip, or ...
# cd into source dir (e.g. kernel or drm-tip, or ...
find /boot/ \( -iname "*config*" -a -iname "*`uname -r`*" \) -exec cp -i -t ./ {} \;
mv *`uname -r`* .config
sed -i 's/^CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_KEY/#CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_KEY/' .config
# make menuconfig
make binrpm-pkg
# make rpm-pkg
ls /usr/src/packages/RPMS/x86_64/ | grep kernel
sudo zypper in /usr/src/packages/RPMS/x86_64/kernel*.rpm
sudo reboot
uname -r

A build took ~10min on a 11gen intel cpu with nvme disk

Builds fail mostly while building modules. Then easiset way out: you probably don't need the module, so deactivate it in .config

Kernel is not signed -> safeboot needs to be deactivated. For signing kernel or modules look elsewhere (e.g. kernel tree docs)
