Allowing the user to build without needing to be root.  If the needed
packages aren't installed, the error messages will tell the user what to
install.

@ -27,10 +27,10 @@ NOTE: While kpatch is designed to work with any recent Linux
kernel on any distribution, the "kpatch build" command currently
only works on Fedora.
First make a patch against the kernel tree, e.g. foo.patch.
First, use diff to make a source patch against the kernel tree, e.g. foo.patch.
Then:
sudo /usr/local/sbin/kpatch build foo.patch
kpatch build foo.patch
sudo insmod kpatch.ko kpatch-foo.ko
Voila, your kernel is patched.

# kpatch build script for Fedora
# kpatch build script
# This script takes a patch based on the version of the kernel
# currently running and creates a kernel module that will
# replace modified functions in the kernel such that the
# patched code takes effect.
# This script contains Fedora specific nuances and will probably
# not work on other distributions; however, it does serve as a tutorial
# on the various steps involved and should be adaptable to other
# distributions.
# This script currently only works on Fedora and will need to be adapted to
# work on other distros.
# This script:
# - Installs the required yum/rpm tools
# - Downloads the kernel src rpm for the currently running kernel
# - Installs the build dependencies for the src rpm
# - Unpacks and prepares the src rpm for building
# - Builds the base kernel (vmlinux)
# - Builds the patched kernel and monitors changed objects
