$ git describe
v5.15.95-38-gd6f4f9746d40
groeck@server:~/src/linux-stable$ !ls
ls -l scripts/pahole-version.sh
-rw-rw-r-- 1 groeck groeck 269 Feb 23 07:33 scripts/pahole-version.sh

This results in:

make[1]: Entering directory '/tmp/buildbot-builddir'
scripts/pahole-flags.sh: 10: /opt/buildbot/slave/stable-queue-5.15/build/scripts/pahole-version.sh: Permission denied
scripts/pahole-flags.sh: 12: [: Illegal number:
scripts/pahole-flags.sh: 16: [: Illegal number:
scripts/pahole-flags.sh: 20: [: Illegal number:

and all builds fail for me.

This is a fun thing, the patch shows it being set to 0755, so `git am`
should be doing the right thing here. Let me dig to see if I can change
something in my scripts to resolve this...


This isn't the first time this happens. I seem to recall that you mentioned
some time ago that whatever you use to apply patches (quilt ?) doesn't
handle executable permission bits correctly.
