Those commands above used to be enough, but now the produced kernel doesn't print any messages on the qemu screen.
With some trial-and-error i was able to track down this commit https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/commit/... and if i add CONFIG_EMBEDDED=n to my KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG file, i can see kernel errors again. (CONFIG_EMBEDDED=n sounds pretty generic and doesn't feel right)
Can you reproduce this?
yes
ps. i'm aware of defconfig, but i would like to experiment/learn from bottom-up, rather than top-down.
I've done the same and would have expected the the previous behavior, too.
