Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: rpm-pkg: append %{?dist} macro to Release tag
Date: Tue, 26 May 2026 14:27:32 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260526062732.84006-1-laoar.shao@gmail.com> (raw)

Add support for the %{?dist} macro in the kernel.spec file. This enables
building and releasing kernel RPMs with a custom distribution suffix
(e.g., via rpmbuild's --define option) to better match production
environment tracking.
