Kernel Build directory not found

[iancampbell]

Is it possible that a relative path was used when specifying the build path?

Example with absolute path:

./vigiles-openwrt.py -b /home/user/projects/openwrt

We currently have a fix to remove the absolute path requirement that will be released once it passes our testing and review stages.

The -k option allows for the specification of an external or not standard location of the kernel config.
Uploading a kernel config allows Vigiles to filter out CVEs that are not applicable to your configuration as some CVEs may only affect modules that are not enabled in your configuration.

There is currently no way to manually specify the directory to look for specific packages, including the kernel.

To help us reproduce and fix this issue please provide us with the following information if you are able to:

• OpenWrt version
• Kernel version
• .config file
• Is this an external kernel?

If you are unable to publicly share this information an issue can also be created through our support portal.

Thank you for your quick answer, ok I understand better the -k option.
Normally the kernel config is retrieved through the path openwrt/build_dir/toolchain-x86_64_gcc-xxx/linux-x.x.x?

To do the scan I only cloned the last version of OpenWrt on the github and built a generic version:

• git clone https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt.git
• make menuconfig
• make -j8

Build informations :

• OpenWrt version : 21.02.3
• Kernel version: 5.10.134

I hope there is enough informations or I can try to make a ticket on the support.

Yes it was exactly the problem I had.
Using an absolute path fixed the problem thank you for your help !
