With newer kernels > 5.0, undefined variables now throw an error
rather than a warning.  Force the older warning behaviour so that
dkms builds can pass ADT build testing.

Hi Colin,

Is this to solve the previous ADT issue from "[V3] efi_runtime: remove
efi_runtime dkms" (http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1136754/)?

I applied both patches and run ADT test by "sudo autopkgtest
./fwts_${RELEASE_VERSION}-0ubuntu1.dsc -- null" ($RELEASE_VERSION =
19.07.01 which is a test build), it doesn't return success. Is this
intentional?

Hrm, I'm running it from the source as follows:

git clone git://kernel.ubuntu.com/hwe/fwts
cd fwts
sudo autopkgtest . -- null

and it works OK for me on ubuntu eoan, see attached log (captured using
'script')

Also tried  sudo autopkgtest ./fwts_19.07.00-0ubuntu2.dsc  -- null and
it works fine (see log).

I tried eoan (daily build iso dated 2019-07-26 07:48) and without following
git clone git://kernel.ubuntu.com/hwe/fwts.git
 - Install eoan, run sudo apt date && sudo apt upgrade
 - Install some other apps
 - git clone git://kernel.ubuntu.com/hwe/fwts.git
 - cd fwts
 - pwclient git-am 1136754 1138706
 - sudo autopkgtest . -- null

However, I still got the same result "SKIP no tests in this package",
and "echo $?" returns 8.

Without the two patches, the "echo $?" return 0

The log file is attached.

OK, I can clearly see what's going on. I'll try and clear up the confusion.

My fix is to address a modpost issue with kernels > 5.0, I've just
dialed back the failure message to a warning messages on arches that
don't link because the arch does not support UEFI.  My fix is nothing to
do with Ivan's fix in any way.

I had to add my patch to the packaging to get it through ADT testing
with 5.2 kernels, see
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fwts/19.07.00-0ubuntu2

The build was working for me because I didn't have Ivan's patch. I
expect if you just use my patch you will see a successful built too.

Ok, thanks! I kinda asked about it but it might not very clear.
