| # Release builds |
| |
| Release builds on automated build servers **must** have `--config=release` set. |
| Example: |
| |
| ```shell |
| $ tools/bazel run --config=release //common:kernel_aarch64_dist -- --destdir=out/dist |
| ``` |
| |
| **NOTE**: The flag is set for builds on [ci.android.com](http://ci.android.com). |
| |
| ## SCM version |
| |
| With `--config=release`, the build tries to embed SCM version to the artifacts. |
| However, additional work may be needed to embed the correct SCM version, |
| especially for external `kernel_module()`s. |
| |
| See [scmversion.md](scmversion.md) for details. |
